usb: Add support for indicating whether a port is removable
Userspace may want to make policy decisions based on whether or not a given USB device is removable. Add a per-device member and support for exposing it in sysfs. Information sources to populate it will be added later. Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

+ Some information about whether a given USB device is
+ physically fixed to the platform can be inferred from a
