The patch "usb: simplify usbport trigger" together with "leds: triggers:
add device attribute support" caused an regression for the usbport
trigger. it will no longer enumerate any active usb hub ports under the
"ports" directory in the sysfs class directory, if the usb host drivers
are fully initialized before the usbport trigger was loaded.
The reason is that the usbport driver tries to register the sysfs
entries during the activate() callback. And this will fail with -2 /
ENOENT because the patch "leds: triggers: add device attribute support"
made it so that the sysfs "ports" group was only being added after the
activate() callback succeeded.
This version of the patch reverts parts of the "usb: simplify usbport
trigger" patch and restores usbport trigger's functionality.
