Since we initialize usb in rc.sysinit, it wouldn't do anything.

We do that. The reason cold-plugging doesn't work with this because
the fs isn't read-write at the time. So in our current package,
hotplug actually waits around for a while for the root fs to
become read-write. It's not the most elegant solution, but
it was the quickest to code at the time.
