Thanks for improving on my commit. Your patch looks correct as far as I can see, but rather complicated for what it does. Couldn't we get the same end result simply by looping until opening /dev/usbN yields ENOENT? Or alternatively, if we do spend the effort to walk the device tree, we should use the information gained from that to full advantage by issuing warnings about missing /dev/usbN device nodes rather than just silently ignoring the affected controllers. -- Andreas Gustafsson, g...@netbsd.org
