We wrote the musb glue layer for the Ben Nanonote handheld computer
only to provide ethernet-over-usb functionality.

I was thinking about adding DMA support later, but Lars-Peter Clausen
did experiment with DMA, and found out that all ethernet packets were
unaligned, while the DMA only works if they are aligned.
As a consequence, the DMA was bypassed all the time, making it useless
at least for the ethernet gadget we are interested in.

That's why DMA didn't make it into the glue layer.

Cheers.
