True. Sent already a new patchset covering it, and other places where
/proc/bus/bus are mentioned.

Besides the stuff already fixed, there are still a few other bits
to address:

Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:/proc/bus/usb filesystem output
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:/proc/bus/usb.  It provides the /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file, as well as
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:the /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD files.
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:**NOTE**: If /proc/bus/usb appears empty, and a host controller
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:      mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:      none  /proc/bus/usb  usbfs  defaults  0  0
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:THE /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD FILES:
Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt:devices.  You would open the /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD file read/write,

This should likely be merged at usb.rst file or fully reworked.

include/uapi/linux/capability.h:/* Allow sending USB messages to any device via /proc/bus/usb */
include/uapi/linux/usb/ch9.h: * not other descriptors) are read from usbfs (i.e. /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD);

I'll address this on a version 4.

sound/usb/usx2y/us122l.c:       sprintf(hw->name, "/proc/bus/usb/%03d/%03d/hwdeppcm",
sound/usb/usx2y/usX2Yhwdep.c:   sprintf(hw->name, "/proc/bus/usb/%03d/%03d", device->bus->busnum, device->devnum);
sound/usb/usx2y/usx2yhwdeppcm.c:        sprintf(hw->name, "/proc/bus/usb/%03d/%03d/hwdeppcm", dev->bus->busnum, dev->devnum);

Not sure about the above.

Regards,
Mauro
