Hi!
> The failures when the ioctl_sg01 test tried to query a USB device
> turned out to be another data leak. Allow using USB devices again
> but keep the improved device lookup algorithm.

I just wonder, shouldn't we find all the devices on the system and
return array of strings? Or at least pick at least one device per
differet bus?
