I have the ehci device defined, but since I don't any USB 2 ports
it probably doesn't matter. I'm running with a GENERIC conf for
6.0-STABLE with usb built-in.

As I see it the uscanner device will probe the generic usbdevice
and recognize the scanner and create a devfs entry. This happens
for me when I plug it in.

Somewhere around the 5.3-RELEASE it was necessary to modify
/usr/src/sys/dev/usb/uscanner.c to include the LiDE 30 scanner.

Perhaps it is interesting to see whether the scanner appears in
`usbdevs -v` if you don't get a /dev/uscanner0. Mine shows as:

port 2 addr 3: full speed, power 500 mA, config 1, CanoScan(0x220e),
Canon(0x04a9), rev 1.00
