Does this supersede part of your earlier "manualbsp" patch? It's not made
clear here or in the cover letter but it looks like it might.

The helper script patch needs to come before this patch rather than after it,
since this patch won't work without it.

Can we use "usbhost" being in MACHINE_FEATURES and MACHINE not starting
with "qemu" to enable this instead of adding another variable? (Assuming that
sounds reasonable to everyone else)

Otherwise I agree with Mike's reply, we should avoid writing to the storage
device as part of the test.

Also, as this is patching OE-Core, the patch needs to be sent to the 
openembedded-core at lists.openembedded.org mailing list, if you could
please use that for the next revision that would be great.

Thanks,
Paul
