/sys/bus/usb/devices vs. /proc/bus/usb/devices ....

Hmm,  I'm confused....

Running the same version of vmware on stock rawhide system 'breaks'
vmware usb handling.

Petr (of vmware/linux fame) states that vmware needs the 'older 2.4'
/proc/bus/usb/devices file (and file format).

On my system, mounting /proc/bus/usb on /dev/bus/usb as type usbfs
fixes (e.g., mount -t usbfs /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb). Unmounting
breaks it again.
