Thanks!  I was unaware of the list.  Punting there also.

I am looking for data from the device to the host.

I see, that explains things.

Yes, I am not filtering really.  But if this code is for usbfs, then 
this is definitely not what I am looking for.

I think what I am looking for might be in devices.c::usb_device_read() 
... poking around there now.  It calls usb_device_dump() which takes a 
user space buffer as a parameter for which it dumps data in to.

Thanks for the response!
