Does anyone know why we have this code in include/linux/usbdevicefs.h?
Is it still needed?

/*
* sigh. rwsemaphores do not (yet) work from modules
*/

#define rw_semaphore semaphore
#define init_rwsem init_MUTEX
#define down_read down
#define down_write down
#define up_read up
#define up_write up

Paul.
