The USB completion callback does not disable interrupts while acquiring the lock. We want to remove the local_irq_disable() invocation from __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() and therefore it is required for the callback handler to disable the interrupts while acquiring the lock. The callback may be invoked either in IRQ or BH context depending on the USB host controller. Use the _irqsave() variant of the locking primitives.
All of the "use irqsave in USB's complete callback" patches are not stable material as they are prep work for changes that have yet to hit Linus's tree.
So you can drop this one.
Now dropped. Thanks!
