Several outlets asked Sony about this at E3 and their answer was that they felt 99% sure most wired USB controllers should work.

PS3 and PS4 use the same standard USB interface. You lose access to the share button and touchpad (so if the latter is heavily used in Destiny you'll be SOL) but otherwise wired devices should be good to go.

All subject to confirmation, of course.
