Actually, the parts I need to replace are in libhid.c, not libusb.c.
The goal is to completely remove libusb from the loop when using uhid.

I looked at trying to write a test program that just sends and
receives some commands, but I figured I might as well just put it in
the driver (since I have a different Tripp Lite UPS than some of the
others who are trying to use Tripp Lite (USB) and FreeBSD).

Again, FreeBSD users can just remove uhid from the config and still
use their USB HID keyboard and mouse, but the other BSDs limit you to
PS/2.
