well, it's a git tree, and all that this implies.  The git URL is
right at the top of linux-next.patch.

The full changelog is contained in linux-next.patch.  Searching it for
"Option" quickly leads to

    USB: add option hso driver
    
    This driver is for a number of different Option devices.  Originally
    written by Option and Andrew Bird, but cleaned up massivly for
    acceptance into mainline by me (Greg).
    
    TODO:
    	- remove proc files and move to debugfs
    	- review network interfaces
    	- add better changelog information
    	- Use netif_msg_ for the message level rather than module parameter
    	- net_device_stats are now available in dev->stats
    
    Many thanks to the following for their help in cleaning up the driver by
    providing feedback and patches to it:
    	- Paulius Zaleckas <paulius.zaleckas@...tonika.lt>
    	- Oliver Neukum <oliver@...kum.org>
    	- Alan Cox <alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk>
