So if I understood correctly, drivers that allocate these as part of larger structures (struct *_device etc) are doing wrong thing and are potentially buggy. And this is because cachelines of buffers can be DMA mapped after usb_submit_urb() and editing same cacheline while URB is in-flight can therefore be hazardous.

I checked setup_packet and transfer_buffer usage of some drivers in 3.9.8 and made some observations. Should these be fixed?
