X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc1~858^2~71 X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=782a7a632e4b0581ade665e3d89ee97c8db0f441;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git [PATCH] USB: add usb_interrupt_msg() function for api completeness. Really just a wrapper around usb_bulk_msg() but now it's documented much better.
