-This is a simple USB keyboard driver written from Linus'
-USB driver (started with Greg's usb-0.03b.tar.gz source
-tree)
-
-It works fine with my BTC keyboard but I'm still investigating
-trouble with my MS keyboard (trouble starts with an inability
-to set into boot protocol mode, though, this very well could
-be all due to crappy hardware).
-
-Anyway, I would appreciate you taking a look if you have
-any USB keyboards lying around.  Oh also, I'm doing this on
-UHCI so sorry if it breaks with OHCI.

-Keyboard patch
---------------
-
-Instead of using the multiple keyboard patch and then running into all
-of the kernel version problems that the current Linux-USB project has
-had, I'm just mapping the USB keycodes to the standard AT-101 keycodes
-and sending them directly to "handle_scancode".
-
-This may or may not be considered a hack.  Anyway it is effective, and
-I think safe, and allows USB keyboards to coexist with a serial
-keyboard (oh yeah, one side effect is that you can for example hold
-down the control key on the serial keyboard and press "a" on the USB
-keyboard and you get Control-a like with Windows USB) and works
-fine for console and X.
-
-You do need to make a *tiny* patch the kernel source tree so that the
-function "handle_scancode" is exported from keyboard.c though.
-
-  $ cd /usr/src/linux
-  $ patch -p0 < kbd.patch
-
-And, of course, then, you need to rebuild and install the kernel.
-
-** [Vojtech]: Alternately, just 'insmod kbd-stub', if you don't want
-to use the keyboard and are too lazy to patch the kernel.
-
-Keyboard map
-------------
-
-I'm including a stupid utility "mkmap" which generates the USB->serial
-keymap.  It takes in maps/serial.map (the current serial keymap,
-generated by "dumpkeys"), maps/usb.map (the USB keymap), and
-maps/fixup.map (fixes for e0 keys and misc.) and spits out keymap.c
-Anyway, it is not beautiful but should serve its purpose for the
-moment.

-Other changes
--------------
-uhci.c:
-  * added a context value to the irq callback function
-    (this is exactly like the "dev_id" field to request_irq)
-  * played with uhci_reset_port to get better hot-plug results
-    (eg. do a wait_ms(200) before calling uhci_reset_port)
-usb.c:
-  * disconnect all devices after uhci-control thread is killed
-  * skip over the HID descriptor
-  * disconnect the high-level driver in usb_disconnect
-
