    [PATCH] USB: add dynamic id functionality to USB core · 733260ff

    Echo the usb vendor and product id to the "new_id" file in the driver's
    sysfs directory, and then that driver will be able to bind to a device
    with those ids if it is present.
    
    Example:
    	echo 0557 2008 > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo_driver/new_id
    adds the hex values 0557 and 2008 to the device id table for the foo_driver.
    
    Note, usb-serial drivers do not currently work with this capability yet.
    usb-storage also might have some oddities.
