Comment (by mmlr):
For the USB disk handling this is not the way to go, as you can't possibly
map the usb_disk path to the usb_raw path (as you already figured out).
The "KINGSTON SMS..." name of the disk comes from the disk device manager
and it in turn gets it from the scsi_periph driver via B_GET_DEVICE_NAME.
To get the same for USB devices, one only needs to implement this ioctl in
usb_disk to return the vendor/product strings. As that is pretty straight
forward, I've implemented it in hrev44920. You should therefore not have
to handle USB disks in a special way.
