[PATCH] various fix for usb sniffing

["Abeni Paolo" <paolo.abeni () telecomitalia it>]

hello,

The attached patch contains some improvement to the current usb sniffing code.

Most notably the byte alignment of header contained in each usb 'packet' is enforced to be little endian (currently is 
in host byte order and this give some issue). This requires to disable memory mapped access.

The usb_platform_finddevs() function now use information present into /proc filesystem and does not require to have 
debugfs mounted. 

There are a few spares aestethic fix, too.

Must I split this patch into more specific ones to facilitate the review?

Best regards,

Paolo
