Ok, no, I didn't write that patch, I'm getting very confused here.

In 2.6.24-rc6 there is no usage of debugfs in the ohci driver.

In the -mm tree there is a patch, from Tony Jones, that moves some debug
code out of sysfs and into debugfs where it belongs.  It does it for
both the ehci and ohci USB host controller drivers, and this is the code
that is incorrect if CONFIG_DEBUGFS is not enabled.

So, for the 2.6.24 release, nothing needs to be changed, all is good,
and there is no regression.

Right?  Or am I still confused about this whole thing?

Probably, since I also wasn't sure about this getting added to the
post-2.6.23 regressions. I'd expect this problem to be -mm only myself,
but then I didn't actively verify it in code (and I haven't tried -rc6
proper on that machine yet either, build takes ages ;).
OK, since I cannot really offer anything other than positive feelings about
this being non-rc6 breakage, should I try -rc6 proper, too?

Hm, I wonder if this means I can go back to drinking more holiday
wine... :)

.....even more confusion? :)

Thanks for your help,
