(Resending because this seems to have gotten dropped)

Hi Greg,

When I wanted to implement some environment variables in my hotplug
method, I looked for an example of how to do it. I noticed two
things: adding values ends up being kind of messy, and the hotplug
method in drivers/usb/core/usb.c is subtly wrong! These two patches
attempt to fix both of those problems.

Let me know if you don't like the HOTPLUG_ENV_VAR name and want
something different.

If you apply these, I'll send patches to use HOTPLUG_ENV_VAR in net/,
drivers/ieee1394/, etc.

Thanks,
Roland
