patch below marks various USB tables and variables as const so that they
end up in .rodata section and don't cacheline share with things that get
written to. For the non-array variables it also allows gcc to optimize
more.

The following (tested) patch fixes the exact same issue with the ATI
Remote input driver.

when stealing code from ati_remote for a GPL-driver of my usbradio (because of
its neat usb int transfers) I found out, that the inbuf is freed twice.
I don't have the ati-remote, so I don't know it is a problem at all, but it
looks strange to me anyway. Also I don't know if it has been fixed already in
newer kernel versions.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
