This patch has a lot of extra stuff in it.  It looks like you forgot to
undo a bunch of things from the previous version, things that are no
longer needed.

As I said before, you really need to proofread your patches before
emailing them.  Don't rely on other people to find your mistakes.

Also, you left out one thing that should still be here.  What happened 
to the part about changing

#if	!defined(PCI_DRIVER) &&		\

to

#if	!ENABLED(CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD_PCI) &&	\

?
