+Subject: [PATCH] usb-devices: avoid dependency on bash
+
+By virtue of having #!/bin/bash this script declared that it requires
+bash, however manual examination, checkbashisms and tests with dash
+and busybox show that it doesn't contain any bashisms, so change the
+header to avoid the dependency.
+
