It's actually in the usbserial.c core code.

How is your driver going to interact with userspace?

I was going to split this code up into some generic functions, but was
shot down by the maintainer at the time.  Since things have changed
since then, I think I will move these functions back into the core usb
code :)

But also remember, in the near future, all of the usb firmware loading
will move to userspace (see the archives for a description of this.)
