Version: 4.9.13-1~bpo8+1
Severity: minor

Hi guys,

In Linaro we're making a lot of use of USB-over-IP devices these days
for our testing lab. We've hit a (very small!) limit defined in kernel
config for the number of virtual host controllers and the ports
allowed per controller.

Currently these are defaulting to

CONFIG_USBIP_VHCI_HC_PORTS=8
(can be 1 <= CONFIG_USBIP_VHCI_HC_PORTS <= 31)

and
CONFIG_USBIP_VHCI_NR_HCS=1
(can be 1 <= CONFIG_USBIP_VHCI_NR_HCS <= 128)

The normal limits are very small; could you please raise these to
(say) 31 and 8 for us? There will obviously be a small increase in
memory usage in the kernel, but only for users of these particular
devices.

Cheers,
Steve
