Comment(by dsaxena):

 Replying to [comment:15 cjb]:
 > Andres says he had objections to EC commands being exposed to userspace
 in the past.  We just noticed that I can have the libertas module loaded
 without ehci_hcd or usb8xxx loaded -- one option (and it seems to be the
 only one that obeys driver boundaries) is to have a sysfs toggle inside
 libertas for the EC reset commands.  I'm happy to write this today.

 Did the sysfs toggle for libertas get written? Since this is very OLPC
 specific, I think it should not be in the that driver but either just go
 under /sys/power/wlan_power or under some new EC-specific interface.
