*facepalm*
I see what has happened now. When you said v4 I got even more confused as the
missing code was in every version from v1->v5 of the current patchset
(August/September). The patch is question is from July 21st and was standalone.
I assumed that patch had been lost as I never recieved any feedback outside of
Arnd and the internal vt8500 mailing list. A new patchset was done later which
included the UHCI driver with fixes. This also explains the merge-conflict
between arm-soc and usb trees just recently.
Apologies for the messup. I will send out a fix for 3.7-rc

Tony P
