Either I misunderstand you or you misunderstood me. I don't want to
see IDs of devices that are connected. I want to see all of the IDs
for all of the devices that might be connected and bound to some
driver at some point in the future. Essentially I want to all IDs that
are passed to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(usb, ...) and
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(hid, ...). Is it possible to obtain those via
usbfs/sysfs?
