source usbutils

PS:
two tips:
- use "reply to all" when you reply to a message in the lkml
- when you quote previous discussion, place your answer below the quote,
instead of above ;)
These things are common courtesy & practice on the lkml.
(see: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/ for reference)
