+Description: Fix lshw crashes with SEGV in privileged containers.
+ lshw cmd is segfaulting when ran inside a privileged container because
+ in a privileged container all debugfs access are denied (as it should be).
+ This patch offer a better mechanism to detect if SYSKERNELDEBUGUSBDEVICES
+ or PROCBUSUSBDEVICES exist and if it can be properly open.
+
+ # lshw strace inside privileged container with a Ubuntu img.
+ ...
+ open("/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
+ open("/proc/bus/usb/devices", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
