+Description:
+		Some information about whether a given USB device is
+		physically fixed to the platform can be inferred from a
+		combination of hub decriptor bits and platform-specific data
+		such as ACPI. This file will read either "removable" or
+		"fixed" if the information is available, and "unknown"
