I figure most folks will build orion-ehci as a module and use an initrd.

Possibly, however that doesn't mean this shouldn't be fixed anyway.

Yes, I didn't mean to imply otherwise.  I know new patches for v3.4 are
no longer being accepted (they should already be in for-next, right?)
So, I'm not sure what the disposition of this patch should be.

Just send it to arm-soc as usual, identifying it as a fix.
Or, given that this is USB related, you might send it to 
linux-usb-u79uwXL29TaiAVqoAR/hOA@public.gmane.org

Ok.

If it's appropriate to push it into v3.4[-rc?], great.  I just didn't
want to assume that and appear to be pushing patches after the for-next
window closed.  I'll send it whereever you guys advise.

It is always appropriate to send bug fixes.  This is the kind of patches 
for which there is a -rc period.

good to know.

It is too late for v3.3 now as it was released 2 days ago.  However if 
v3.3 is also broken then the fix for v3.4-rc can carry the 
"CC: stable-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org" annotation so it'll be picked up for 
v3.3.1 as well.

It should only be broken for folks trying to boot a mainline u-boot and
kernel on the dreamplug without an initrd.  That requires v3.4.  There
maybe some other folks I don't know about so I'll add the CC just in
case.

Thanks for the clarification,

Jason.
