Hi all,

usb audio is generally broken on MIPSEL (due to a pretty large
mmap() issue which people are now actively working on), leading to multi-page
OOPS crashes or (reportedly) garbled sound in the more lucky cases.
ftdi_sio USB serial doesn't do a thing either (likely due to tty layer rework
which managed to break some serial drivers). Backport attempts of
some source-compatible fixes proved unsuccessful.
Plus some b44 netconsole lockup that I had to fix.
And to top it all off when unloading ftdi_sio _or_ yanking the cable
it reproducibly gets stuck on the main driver core device semaphore,
pretty much necessitating a reboot (this one _might_ finally perhaps be
the fault of an OpenWrt-managed component, ohci-ssb, though,
but I'm doubtful on this suspicion ;).

And that all in a rather progressed .9 patchlevel of a so-called stable kernel.
Regression testing, anyone?

Contemplating reverting to 2.6.28.10 now (would anyone by chance know my odds
there?), but I'll first submit some 2.6.30 quilt stuff.

Working on brcm47xx (ASUS WL-500gP v2, external USB boot).

HTH,

Andreas Mohr
