+retrieves the list of USB port numbers which the datastream for a given USB device follows.
+The first port number is the Root HUB port number.
+Then children port numbers follow.
+The Root HUB device itself has a port path length of zero.
+Valid port numbers start at one and range until and including 255.
+Typically there should not be more than 16 levels, due to electrical and protocol limitations.
+This functions returns the number of actual port levels upon success
