Ah.
A root hub is an invention of the usb std.
There's no such thing. It's the controller.
It can be that usbd does not write vid/did for root hubs, perhaps.

I've not seen a root hub in a keyboard. If it's a usb keyboard, it can't be
a root hub, because you have to plug the kbd into a port, which
belongs to a hub,
root or not.
