Bug Description

An upstream stable patch for xhci contained an error. This patch was applied to Lucid, Maverick, and Natty kernels, and discovered during testing of Natty in -proposed. That report is in bug number 769042

The patch with the error is:
USB: xhci - fix math in xhci_get_endpoint_interval()

The correction patch will be attached to this bug.

The problem was resolved in Natty by reverting three xhci patches, before the root cause was understood. For Natty these patches will be reapplied along with the fix in the next cycle.

For Lucid and Maverick, the problem patch was applied and the problem was discovered before the finished kernels were copied to -proposed. Lucid and Maverick kernels will be respun, adding the fix.

I'm marking the root linux task (ie the actively developed linux task, currently Oneiric) Fix Released as the patch to correct the issue was included as of v3.0-rc1. Since we've already uploaded linux-3.0.0-7.8 which was rebased on upstream v3.0 final, Oneiric should already include this patch. Thanks.
