I think this would be ok _if_ all the USB driver names started with
"usb-". E.g., acm.o should be renamed usb-acm.o.
Then you could clearly see which function each driver is used for, and
also something useful about when you'd want to use them.
Another consistent approach is to name the /lib/modules tree after the
kernel source's drivers/ and net/ trees.
