I haven't tested this combination of changes, except in a highly
artificial setting (i.e., running the usbtest suite), so I don't know
how it will behave under normal use. In any case, it's too late to do
anything now except issue another -stable release.

I just saw that the "dont check DMA values" patch did get into the
3.0-stable and 3.4-stable releases. I didn't realize at the time, but
it shouldn't be in any kernel earlier than 3.6. I guess the best thing
to do is queue up a reversion for those two series.
