[ Upstream commit cbc3d00cf88fda95dbcafee3b38655b7a8f2650a ]
Without this 'else' statement, an "usb" name goes into two handlers:
the first/previous 'if' statement _AND_ the for-loop over 'devtable',
but the latter is useless as it has no 'usb' device_id entry anyway.
Tested with allmodconfig before/after patch; no changes to *.mod.c:
git checkout v6.6-rc3
make -j$(nproc) allmodconfig
make -j$(nproc) olddefconfig
make -j$(nproc)
find . -name '*.mod.c' | cpio -pd /tmp/before
# apply patch
make -j$(nproc)
find . -name '*.mod.c' | cpio -pd /tmp/after
diff -r /tmp/before/ /tmp/after/
# no difference

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
