Once thing we could do is try to merge usb stuff so that those are again
compatible in the various 9 flavours out there.

Perhaps the ones to ask about this are Geoff and Cinap (I'm willing to help,
but have not done much on this front since long ago now).

Speaking just for myself, I think the global FS registry is a good thing for usb.
I'm not sure I'd do drivers embedded in usbd now.

At the time, the idea was just to have a single binary (usbd) carrying the usb
stuff. Because using multiple ones implied that the kernel (usbd was at /boot)
had multiple copies of the same libraries for each different binary. So, having a
way to decide which ones to link into usbd and which ones not, seemed a good way.
