Really? What does this help out with? Are there future changes that
require this?
I'm all for cleanups, but I don't see what this helps with.
Also, you have a coding style issue in this patch, which means I
couldn't take it anyway:
> +extern int usb_probe_device(struct device *dev);
We don't do that in .c files :(
