Actually, I'm not of much help in megatec_usb issues, since I'm not
the author of that driver. But the people in the know should be
reading this.

BTW (for the authors of megatec_usb), the banner for "megatec_usb"
only shows my name (from the core/serial layer), when it should also
show the authors/maintainers of the USB layer.



I believe this line will just stop the mess. People should not disturb
Carlos when they have megatec_usb specific problems.
