This patch exposes DMA addresses in URBs. It exposes new APIs that let drivers be a bit smarter in terms of DMA, reducing USB overhead on some platforms (but not commodity pcs). As discussed with DaveM, and on the usb-devel list. Supporting patches are still needed. Of course, there's teaching HCDs to use _these_ addresses when they're provided (easy). There's also teaching drivers (like hid) to use the new usb_buffer_alloc() support,; can happen incrementally. And adding scatterlist support, which will be desirable for usb-storage and hpusbscanner. But this is the start needed to get all of that going.
