Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] Add TRACE_EVENTs in pwc_isoc_handler()

Hi Steven,

Thank you for valuable comments.

This is for measuring performance of URB completion callback inside PWC driver.
What do you think about moving events to __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() in
order to make this more generic? Like the following:

        local_irq_save(flags);
// trace urb complete enter
        urb->complete(urb);
// trace urb complete exit
        local_irq_restore(flags);
