I thought it was "usbfs"... Hmmm looking in a 2.4.23
Doc../usb/proc_usb_info.txt document:
**NOTE**: If /proc/bus/usb appears empty, and a host controller
driver has been linked, then you need to mount the
filesystem. Issue the command (as root):
mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
...
**NOTE**: The filesystem has been renamed from "usbdevfs" to
"usbfs", to reduce confusion with "devfs". You may
still see references to the older "usbdevfs" name.
I guess both work but it is migrating to usbfs. <shrug>
