Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] usb,uhci: add a new tag for virtual uhci devices

Hi Alan,

I don't have a machine that this makes action different.

No matter whether it makes different, there is one thing will never change:
We create a patch to FIX a problem, not to avoid a problem.
Only when we can not fix it, we try to avoid it.

Thanks
ZhenHua
