f150fa1afb USB: Allow usbmon as a module even if usbcore is builtin
usbmon can only be built as a module if usbcore is a module too. Trivial
changes to the relevant Kconfig and Makefile (and a few trivial changes
elsewhere) allow usbmon to be built as a module even if usbcore is
builtin.

This is verified to work in all 9 permutations (3 correctly prohibited
by Kconfig, 6 build a suitable result).

6f23ee1fef USB: add binary API to usbmon
This patch adds a new, "binary" API in addition to the old, text API usbmon
had before. The new API allows for less CPU use, and it allows to capture
all data from a packet where old API only captured 32 bytes at most. There
are some limitations and conditions to this, e.g. in case someone constructs
a URB with 1GB of data, it's not likely to be captured, because even the
huge buffers of the new reader are finite. Nonetheless, I expect this new
capability to capture all data for all real life scenarios.

The downside is, a special user mode application is required where cat(1)
worked before. I have sample code at http://people.redhat.com/zaitcev/linux/
and Paolo Abeni is working on patching libpcap.

This patch was initially written by Paolo and later I tweaked it, and
we had a little back-and-forth. So this is a jointly authored patch, but
I am submitting this I am responsible for the bugs.

0256839619 [PATCH] usbmon in 2.6.13: peeking into DMA areas
This code looks at urb->transfer_dma, maps the page and takes the data.
I am looking for volunteers to contribute architectures other than i386
or to develop an architecure-neutral API for it (or point me that it
was done already).

003ba51535 [PATCH] USB: ub documentation update
The patch which went in was correct, but not quite what I had in mind.
Here is a patch to update that a little bit. Original patch is at:

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
