Keeping the code bases closer together will probably make development 
easier, not harder.  Also, this USB code will now be tested on more 
hardware before the release of 4.10 or 5.3.  I wouldn't be surprised if 
someone running -stable on strange hardware finds a bug that needs 
fixing on both -stable and -current.

Seems like a win/win to me.
