USB core callbacks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What callbacks will usbcore do?
===============================
@ -11,30 +14,42 @@ The callbacks defined in the driver structure are:
1. Hotplugging callbacks:
* @probe: Called to see if the driver is willing to manage a particular
* interface on a device.
* @disconnect: Called when the interface is no longer accessible, usually
* because its device has been (or is being) disconnected or the
* driver module is being unloaded.
- @probe:

interface on a device.
- @disconnect:
Called when the interface is no longer accessible, usually
because its device has been (or is being) disconnected or the
driver module is being unloaded.
2. Odd backdoor through usbfs:
* @ioctl: Used for drivers that want to talk to userspace through
* the "usbfs" filesystem. This lets devices provide ways to
* expose information to user space regardless of where they
* do (or don't) show up otherwise in the filesystem.

3. Power management (PM) callbacks:
* @suspend: Called when the device is going to be suspended.
* @resume: Called when the device is being resumed.
* @reset_resume: Called when the suspended device has been reset instead
* of being resumed.
- @suspend:
Called when the device is going to be suspended.
- @resume:
Called when the device is being resumed.
- @reset_resume:
Called when the suspended device has been reset instead
of being resumed.
4. Device level operations:
* @pre_reset: Called when the device is about to be reset.
* @post_reset: Called after the device has been reset
- @pre_reset:
Called when the device is about to be reset.
- @post_reset:
Called after the device has been reset
The ioctl interface (2) should be used only if you have a very good
reason. Sysfs is preferred these days. The PM callbacks are covered
