Ok, in talking with the usb-storage author, I'll be accepting all
unushal_devs.h patches now, as long as they contain the following:
        - a comment above the entry with a email address of someone who
          has this device that this entry fixes the driver for them.
          This is to allow us to possibly remove entries at a later time
          if the core changes, and get a verification that it's ok to do
          so.
        - a copy of the /proc/bus/usb/devices device entry with the
          device plugged in and the driver loaded (this should not be in
          the patch, but in the body of the email.)
          
So, if there are any outstanding drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h
entries that people have floating around, sent them on!

thanks,

greg k-h
