usb: introduce usb_device authorization bits
This just modifies 'struct usb_device' to contain the 'authorized' bit. It also adds a 'wusb' bit. This is needed because nonauthorized (and thus non-authenticated) wusb devices will fail certain kind of simple requests (such as string descriptors). By knowing the device is WUSB, we just avoid them. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
