I think we'll be committing the kernel portion first. There are several reasons that justify this: 1) The old usb code remains and is on by default so no one is really affected by it. 2) This is a rather large delta and it has been getting quite difficult to get in, the larger the delta, the more problems we will have bringing it in. > > P.S.
