docs-rst: usb: update old usbfs-related documentation

There's no usbfs anymore. The old features are now either
exported to /dev/bus/usb or via debugfs.

Update documentation accordingly, pointing to the new
places where the character devices and usb/devices are
now placed.

-Mounting and Access Control
----------------------------
-
-There are a number of mount options for usbfs, which will be of most
-interest to you if you need to override the default access control
-policy. That policy is that only root may read or write device files
-(``/proc/bus/BBB/DDD``) although anyone may read the ``devices`` or
-``drivers`` files. I/O requests to the device also need the
-CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability,
-
-The significance of that is that by default, all user mode device
-drivers need super-user privileges. You can change modes or ownership in
-a driver setup when the device hotplugs, or maye just start the driver
-right then, as a privileged server (or some activity within one). That's
-the most secure approach for multi-user systems, but for single user
-systems ("trusted" by that user) it's more convenient just to grant
-everyone all access (using the *devmode=0666* option) so the driver can
-start whenever it's needed.
-
-The mount options for usbfs, usable in /etc/fstab or in command line
-invocations of *mount*, are:
-
-*busgid*\ =NNNNN
-    Controls the GID used for the /proc/bus/usb/BBB directories.
-    (Default: 0)
-
-*busmode*\ =MMM
-    Controls the file mode used for the /proc/bus/usb/BBB directories.
-    (Default: 0555)
-
-*busuid*\ =NNNNN
-    Controls the UID used for the /proc/bus/usb/BBB directories.

-    Controls the GID used for the /proc/bus/usb/devices and drivers

-*listmode*\ =MMM

-
-*listuid*\ =NNNNN
-    Controls the UID used for the /proc/bus/usb/devices and drivers
-    files. (Default: 0)
-
-Note that many Linux distributions hard-wire the mount options for usbfs
-in their init scripts, such as ``/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit``, rather than
-making it easy to set this per-system policy in ``/etc/fstab``.
