Hi Jiri,

First of all, thank you for taking the time to review my patches.

Sorry, that's something I should have explained in the changelog.

Intel's test bot reported compilation errors on the first version of the patch
when USB support wasn't configured:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1425313/

I was kindly pointed to a similar error and its fix, but, maybe in this case this
is not the right fix?
Maybe there is a macro that I can use to wrap the USB related code in an #ifdef?

Thanks,
Jose
