In three parts, no less ... :)

To land in Documentation/* sometime soonish, so I guess feedback
now would be handy!

As for how it affects the USB code ... I thought the goal was to
have that be more or less invisible, except within the core or for
anything manipulating the device tree.  I'll have a look at those
docs, but what I recall from Pat's original posts was the notion
that device drivers would still work with bus-specific APIs (USB,
PCI, etc), but those would now be supporting certain system-wide
integrity guarantees.
