It looks to me they should also move where they belong, to the real usb_host device on the usb bus, and not in some disconnected class device. If it really causes issues for anybody, we can always create a symlink from the usb_host directory to the real device. But I'd rather remove that whole thing if possible. >> 4.

Then people can do this, if they are crazy enough. :) touch /dev/bus/usb/devices mount --bind /sys/kernel/debug/<some name> /dev/bus/usb/devices Thanks, Kay -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
