Extensible Firmware Interface Specification

Another example is a USB Controller (interface number 0) that is connected to port 3 of a USB
Hub Controller (interface number 0), and this USB Hub Controller is connected to the port 1 of the
root hub. The shorthand notation for this device path is:
ACPI(PNP0A03,0)/PCI(1F|2)/USB(1,0)/USB(3,0).
Table 14-5 shows the device path for this USB Controller.
