Dear David,

No, they are not.

I guess you were misled by the structure of the patches. There is nothing I 
can do about it. Please notice that usb_read() is created in 2/3, and I'm 
free to use the name of the variables I like in new functions. Furthermore, 
usb_read() is untouched in 3/3. I can see why you thought they are renames :)

I didn't know this rule, but I must agree that this style is horrible. I'll 
change the order of variables declaration for the purpose of fixing this 
ugly "reverse Xmas tree".

Thanks for your review.

Regards,

Fabio
