[PATCH] USB: ftdi_sio update
A couple of patches for the ftdi_sio driver on 2.5.73 "2.5.73-ftdi_sio-bigupdate.patch" - this is a big, ugly patch to bring the ftdi_sio driver in line with what recently submitted for inclusion in the 2.4.x kernel (v2.4/testing/cset/cset-abbotti@mev.co.uk|ChangeSet|20030627190202|35624.txt), but with necessary changes for 2.5.x. I've bumped the driver's version number to 1.4.0 to distinguish it from that submitted for the 2.4.x kernel. "2.5.73-ftdi_sio-dynamicwrite.patch" - this adds to the above patch to replace the pool of urbs used for writes with dynamically allocated urbs and transfer buffers. I've tested this on the FT8U232AM and FT232BM and I think I've catered for the older "SIO" device, but I don't have a device to test that. Also, it is not safe to unload the driver module while write urbs are in flight (same as for the Visor driver).
