Um, that's not correct. I'm running 2.3.99-pre6 right now, with
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG off and I have the Mfr, Product, and Serial number
strings in /proc/bus/usb/devices. If you take a look at devices.c
there's no checking for CONFIG_USB_DEBUG when it spits out these
strings.
I think they always should be there anyway. It allows some semi-popular
userspace tools to allow the user to see what devices they actually have
without having to keep a huge product database.
So I vote that we keep the code the way it is right now for these
strings (no patch attached :)
