Why have the "*n" here?  Why not just spit out the whole number?  That
would break less parsers :)

And remember to also modify Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt if you
modify the layout.

Did you try running usbview or Randy's perl scripts?  I also think the
KDE control panel parses that file.

And I don't mind breaking backward compatiblilty to fix things, so don't
be afraid of it :)
