Presumably you did grok Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt already?
It gives some pointers, though not much else, for those files.

It should be more like an afternoon to grok the usbdev_ioctl() call
in drivers/usb/.../devio.c ("..." = "." on 2.4, "core" in 2.5); you
can look at "libusb" for some examples.  Or the jUSB code, which
has a more complete bus and device model, and documentation ... but
it's written in Java, which may not be your cup of tea.

On the other hand, periodically I do think it'd be useful to spend
some time writing that up.  Most of the work understanding usbfs is
really understanding the device and bus model behind it.
