OK, I don't like this patch, but I agree that it is needed.
The question now is how do we want to continue with the USB stack.
I'm pretty sure that we can avoid the hacks this introduces, because
the newbus framework is rich enough to support it. Another point is
the use of network queues (see other thread) which is IMO not necessary
too for us.

What's the general opinion, easier maintainance by keeping it as
compatible as possible or better integration into our system?
