/proc/bus/usb gone missing

Asked by gdesilva

I have been using Plextor USB device successfully which requires usbfs mount on /proc/bus/usb to do a firmware reload. After the kernel upgrade to 2.6.31-20 I found that usbfs mount fails as there is no /proc/bus/usb available. I reverted back to 2.6.31-19 and the problem disappears - ie. /proc/bus/usb is available for usbfs mount.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks
