Hi Greg,

Sure just sent the new patch v3.

Patch applies cleanly on my end. So wondering what I am missing.
I expected your patch to conflict with Hans' patch series.
Maybe those are in a different tree/branch ?

Just in case if you are still noticing merge conflicts.

Here is the git log of my local tree:

    This doesn't apply against my usb-next branch at all.

    Can you rebase and resend?

    Remember to collect the reviewed-by tags as well when you do so.
