This is a very useful tool in all it's simple elegance.  For all us who
never would have guessed that there was such an ioctl...

I saved a copy when you first posted it and have used it on quite a few
occasions.  Maybe the tool should be added to the usbutils collection so
it could reach a somewhat wider audience?  Yes, I know the usecases are
all weird, but that still doesn't mean than everyone with a usecase will
read this list :)
