Hello.

This patch adds support for the FHCI USB controller, as found

Full or Low speed modes.

Quite a lot the hardware is doing by itself (SOF generation, CRC
generation and checking), though scheduling and retransmission is on
software's shoulders.

This controller does not integrate the root hub, so this driver also
fakes one-port hub. External hub is required to support more than
one device.

Please, no.

What exactly 'no'? ;-)

No one-port hubs I guess -- they are pointless. Though e.g. MUSB driver creates one -- I guess to impersonate a transaction translating high-speed hub...

WBR, Sergei
