If you mean the USB target device itself, can't you walk the
tree until you find a device that is no longer on bus_type
usb to determine your root?

I don't feel like walking the tree on each pci_dma access

Why should that be needed though?


I never said it would be pretty. :)

Well, usb_device->bus->controller is the only access that
should be needed ... much prettier than a tree walk! It's
set up as part of device enumeration.

Some of the usb_buffer_*() mapping calls could probably
start to get inlined now, using the generic DMA calls.
