This patchset is for USB offload feature, which makes Co-processor to use
some memories of xhci. Especially it's useful for USB Audio scenario.
Audio stream would get shortcut because Co-processor directly write/read
data in xhci memories. It could get speed-up using faster memory like SRAM.
That's why this gives vendors flexibilty of memory management.
Several pathches have been merged in AOSP kernel(android12-5.10) and I put
together and split into 3 patches. Plus let me add user(xhci-exynos)
module to see how user could use it.
To sum up, it's for providing xhci memories to Co-Processor.
It would cover DCBAA, Device Context, Transfer Ring, Event Ring, ERST.
It needs xhci hooks and to export some xhci symbols.
Changes in v2 :
- Fix commit message by adding Signed-off-by in each patch.
- Fix conflict on latest.
Changes in v3 :
- Remove export symbols and xhci hooks which xhci-exynos don't need.
- Modify commit message to clarify why it needs to export symbols.
- Check compiling of xhci-exynos.

Yes, that makes much more sense. What would you want to see if you had
to review such a series?

Unfortunately it might not make more sense, because last time
xhci-exynos driver was a fake driver, not for submission. It did not
compile, it did not work in mainline.
That driver was not even sent to proper mailing lists, as pointed out
by get_maintainers.pl, maybe because it was not developed on the
mainline kernel, so there is no MAINTAINERS file?
Best regards,
Krzysztof

Which is a proof you develop on some custom tree, not on Linux kernel.
Don't. We cannot accept code which was not based on Linux kernel, but
some out of tree local flavor.
All submissions must be based on upstream trees (mainline, maintainer's
for-next or linux-next).
