USB: make usbdevices export their device nodes instead of using a separate class
o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
populate /dev/bus/usb.
o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
are the same.
o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
devices.
o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
platform-pointer.
The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
on the same subsystem.
It looks like this:
add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
SUBSYSTEM=usb
SEQNUM=1533
MAJOR=189
MINOR=131
DEVTYPE=usb_device
PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
TYPE=0/0/0
BUSNUM=002
DEVNUM=004
This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.
I also got a bugzilla assigned for this. :)
