I know that device numbers change, but bus/port numbers are stable and reflect the physical layout
of the hubs and devices. I relied for years on these port numbers to identify specific (otherwise
identical) devices.
For example, I have two TEMPer temperature sensor devices attached. They are both plugged into
a 4-port USB3 hub. They are on ports 3 and 4. Port 2 is unused and port 1 has a bluetooth radio
attached. I also have 5 dvb usb tuners which stayed in their old positions.
Until now, I would see this:
$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 013: ID 0c45:7401 Microdia TEMPer Temperature Sensor
Bus 001 Device 025: ID 0c45:7401 Microdia TEMPer Temperature Sensor

The TEMPer devices show on Bus 01 as expected:
Port 5.Port 3 (Dev 11)
Port 5.Port 4 (Dev 13)
After rebooting the newly installed kernel 5.13.4-200.fc34.x86_64 I get:
$ lsusb

One can see that the TEMPer devices are now showing on Bus 01 in separate positions:
Port 3 (Dev 3) new position
Port 5.Port 3 (Dev 12) old position
This, naturally, confuses my script that collects the data (I use temper-poll).
Is this an intentional change?
