If usb mass storage needed to be "hooked" explicitly into the kernel,
that would be the place to do it.  But I wasn't suggesting that it was
the right thing to do.  I would still rather see usb mass storage
provided as a self contained file server rather than as a "driver"
wired into the kernel -- then a normal 9P interface suffices.
What's the objection to this high level approach?
