I do not see that there is information that might help with USB.

There is the link to a message by Greg Kroah-Hartman, where he
declares the Broadcom USB hardware "broken", at least in the sense
that no information exists for free software writers to let them
make USB work well. There also is mention of a Plan9 driver for
the USB on RPI, we might want to check whether it offers any insight.
Since all nearly all peripherals including Ethernet are connected to
USB on the RPI, good USB support is very important to use the RPI
as more than a toy.
