I had a look, and while at first I thought it was perhaps an over
splitting and categorization. It does make things very clear, and
gets us a split that can be used to keep configs minimal and reusable.

I also wasn't sure about directory splitting, since we do end up
with the names both in .scc/.cfg and the directory name. We could
flatten the directory down to just 'usb' and keep the names of the
files as the differentiator. And if we don't think we'll have to
carry any patches, we could put it under cfg/usb/<Tom's stuff>.

I don't have a really strong opinion (but gave my preference) on this
split (several directories vs single), and I'd bet that you considered 
the same thing. Comments ?

But definitely, this is the way to go, just a minor question about the
organization of the files.
