* 'next-devicetree' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6: (63 commits) of/platform: Register of_platform_drivers with an "of:" prefix of/address: Clean up function declarations of/spi: call of_register_spi_devices() from spi core code of: Provide default of_node_to_nid() implementation. of/device: Make of_device_make_bus_id() usable by other code. of/irq: Fix endian issues in parsing interrupt specifiers of: Fix phandle endian issues of/flattree: fix of_flat_dt_is_compatible() to match the full compatible string of: remove of_default_bus_ids of: make of_find_device_by_node generic microblaze: remove references to of_device and to_of_device sparc: remove references to of_device and to_of_device powerpc: remove references to of_device and to_of_device of/device: Replace of_device with platform_device in includes and core code of/device: Protect against binding of_platform_drivers to non-OF devices of: remove asm/of_device.h of: remove asm/of_platform.h of/platform: remove all of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type references of: Merge of_platform_bus_type with platform_bus_type drivercore/of: Add OF style matching to platform bus ... Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/microblaze/kernel/Makefile due to just some obj-y removals by the devicetree branch, while the microblaze updates added a new file. |

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("khubd").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
../net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
