Message-ID: <51CCE13F.6070009@hp.com> Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2013 09:05:03 +0800 From: "Li, Zhen-Hua (USL-China)" <zhen-hual@...com> To: Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu> CC: gregkh@...uxfoundation.org, linux-usb@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] usb,uhci: add a new tag for virtual uhci devices There was a problem, the warning "Controller not stopped yet". And your last patch for this problem does a wrong thing: It prevents all HP uhci devices from auto-stop, which make HP uhci devices waste more power. This is another new problem. I think this should be corrected, so I want to apply it.
