    [PATCH] USB: update drivers/usb/README

    This just adds a bit more info to drivers/usb/README, mostly

    current kerneldoc).

    +To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:

    + includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.

    + "gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has

    + * The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
    + such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
    + The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
    + peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
    +
    + * Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
    + host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
    + controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
    + cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
    +
    + * Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
    + functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
    + but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
