For USB string descriptors we need to convert ASCII strings to UTF16-LE.
Therefore make a simple helper function (based on ascii2desc from
drivers/usb/core/hcd.c) for that purpose.

You know, we already have utf8s_to_utf16s() in fs/nls/nls_base.c.  
Maybe it doesn't do exactly what you want, but it should be pretty 
close.  Adding another helper function to do essentially the same thing 
seems unnecessary.

Thanks for that pointer. I totally agree with you.

So it would be OK to include linux/nls.h and use utf8s_to_utf16s() in
drivers/usb/{core/hcd.c,misc/usb251xb.c}?

Thanks & regards,
