This driver supports certain USB attached storage devices
such as flash keys.
If you enable this driver, it is recommended to avoid conflicts
with usb-storage by enabling USB_LIBUSUAL.
If unsure, say N.
I was thinking it should be more faster with less one layer.
I'm not exactly happy with those "one-less-layer" solutions for the
devices that are SCSI in nature (like ide-{cd|tape|floppy} or this one)
but at least they have a smaller memory footprint than a multi-layer
SCSI-based implementation. I hope the "low performace" here means that
the devices are slow, not the driver though... :-)
