This is a non-blocking function; no requests are sent over the bus. (Source: libusb docs)

func (*Device) PortNumber 

func (dev *Device) PortNumber() (int, error)

PortNumber gets "the number of the port that a device is connected to. Unless the OS does something funky, or you are hot-plugging USB extension cards, the port number returned by this call is usually guaranteed to be uniquely tied to a physical port, meaning that different devices plugged on the same physical port should return the same port number.
