I believe I already did, through patches sent on Oct. 6:

drivers/usb/gadget/mv_u3d_core.c: IRQF_DISABLED |
IRQF_SHARED, driver_name, u3d)) {
=> Sent fix on Oct. 6, 2013

drivers/usb/host/uhci-platform.c: ret = usb_add_hcd(hcd,
pdev->resource[1].start, IRQF_DISABLED |
=> Sent fix on Oct. 6, 2013

Cheers,

Michael.
