Log Message:
usbdi(9): Restore usb_descriptor_t to its correct definition.
Descriptors in the USB spec all start with bLength and
bDescriptorType. bDescriptorSubtype is only for certain
class-specific descriptors. Many descriptors, such as
usb_device_descriptor_t, _do not_ have bDescriptorSubtype, so using a
structure that has bDescriptorSubtype for such descrpitors is wrong.
There is some history here:
- Back in 1998, when augustss@ introduced the USB stack, the type
usb_descriptor_t was erroneously defined with a bDescriptorSubtype
member.
- In 2007, drochner@ removed this member to accurately reflect the
USB spec.
- In 2018, khorben@ appeared to have accidentally reintroduced it
while importing the umb(4) driver from OpenBSD, which still has the
erroneous bDescriptorSubtype member in usb_descriptor_t.
The umb(4) driver has since been adjusted to correctly use
usb_cdc_descriptor_t instead of usb_descriptor_t (and I have now
restored umidi_cs_descriptor_t which I had removed last month before
I realized this history of usb_descriptor_t), so this member is no
longer necessary.
