I thought the include/linux/usb/ch9.h was supposed to include values that are
defined in various USB specifications (starting with the protocol "chapter 9"
from the USB 1.1 bus specification). The constants (masks) used by these
functions aren't part of the standards, so why move these functions to
include/linux/usb/ch9.h? Was it confusing to find these functions, or do you
have an overall plan for these changes?
