From cc71329b3b89b4a5be849b617f2c4f151f0b9213 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott James Remnant Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 17:21:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] USB: usbfs: deprecate and hide option for !embedded Modern systems do not use usbfs; the entries within it are files, not device nodes, and do not support ACLs which are the default way to provide access to USB devices to untrusted users. It is replaced by device-nodes maintained by udev in /dev/bus/usb, libusb uses this device nodes. Mark the option as deprecated, and hide entirely for non-embedded builds (which may not be using udev but require raw USB device access).
