I don't want them :)

Seriously, I don't have a problem with the patches being cc:ed to
linux-usb as long as you will take them, as often times the issues
involved are USB specific things, not network driver-specific things, so
the developers here can weigh in on them.

Want me to make up a patch to do that?
