I have to disagree with that Greg. While the driver isn't in active
development, a trivial mod to make it less likely a defect is introduced
by any additional code is still a useful addition.

Read the suggested change I posted in reply.
btw: the musb_dbg function is actually a trace function and not a
dmesg/logging mechanism.
drivers/usb/musb/musb_trace.c:void musb_dbg(struct musb *musb, const char *fmt,
...)

Is that trace mechanism useful though? I think it's somewhat odd.
