usbdevs

Hello all -

I've mostly ported over the 'u3g(4)' modem driver from FreeBSD (enough to send this email woohoo) -
however, currently I have only hacked in the USB device ID for my particular gizmo* - reviewing this
driver and other misc. usb stuff it does look like FreeBSD has sprouted a 'usbdevs' infrastructure
a-la 'pcidevs' which we don't have -
As I'll either need to un-usbdevs the various device ID's, or add such an infrastructure to add
the remaining devices to the u3g driver, wondering what peoples takes are about adding this setup
so that various usb gizmos can be moved over to it in the future - seems like a good idea to me.
After that - time to upgrade my plan to unlimited data :D

Thoughts welcome

Cheers,

- Chris

in case anyone is wondering
