This reverts commit200e0d99("USB: storage: optimize to match the Huawei USB storage devices and support new switch command" and the followup bugfix commitcd060956("USB: storage: properly handle the endian issues of idProduct"). The commit effectively added a large number of Huawei devices to the deprecated usb-storage mode switching logic. Many of these devices have been in use and supported by the userspace usb_modeswitch utility for years. Forcing the switching inside the kernel causes a number of regressions as a result of ignoring existing onfigurations, and also completely takes away the ability to configure mode switching per device/system/user. Known regressions caused by this: - Some of the devices support multiple modes, using different switching commands. There are existing configurations taking advantage of this. - There is a real use case for disabling mode switching and instead mounting the exposed storage device. This becomes impossible with switching logic inside the usb-storage driver. - At least on device fail as a result of the usb-storage switching command, becoming completely unswitchable. This is possibly a firmware bug, but still a regression because the device work as expected using usb_modeswitch defaults. In-kernel mode switching was deprecated years ago with the development of the more user friendly userspace alternatives. The existing list of devices in usb-storage was only kept to prevent breaking already working systems. The long term plan is to remove the list, not to add to it.

/* Header file for Special Initializers for certain USB Mass Storage devices

*
|
|
* Current development and maintenance by:
|
|
* (c) 1999, 2000 Matthew Dharm (mdharm-usb@one-eyed-alien.net)
|
|
*
|
|
* This driver is based on the 'USB Mass Storage Class' document. This
|
|
* describes in detail the protocol used to communicate with such
|
|
* devices. Clearly, the designers had SCSI and ATAPI commands in
|
|
* mind when they created this document. The commands are all very
|
|
* similar to commands in the SCSI-II and ATAPI specifications.
|
|
*
|
|
* It is important to note that in a number of cases this class
|
|
* exhibits class-specific exemptions from the USB specification.
|
|
* Notably the usage of NAK, STALL and ACK differs from the norm, in
|
|
* that they are used to communicate wait, failed and OK on commands.
|
|
*
|
|
* Also, for certain devices, the interrupt endpoint is used to convey
|
|
* status of a command.
|
|
*
|
|
* Please see http://www.one-eyed-alien.net/~mdharm/linux-usb for more
|
|
* information about this driver.
