I believe this assumption is acceptable.  It's all about the protocol
number from 1 to 3, so far.  If UAC4 is ever supported in future,
it'll be highly probably the number 4.  (If not and keeping the same
protocol number 3, we'll need a different check in anyway.)
And the other numbers are excluded already in is_supported_uac()
check.

The condition looks cryptic, though, yes.

Maybe the check should be factored out, e.g.

/* return true if the new config has a higher priority then the old config */
static bool check_uac_desc_priority(struct usb_host_config *old,
				struct usb_host_config *new)
{
	if (!is_supported_uac(new))
		return false;

	if (!is_supported_uac(old))
		return true;

	/*
	 * Assume that bInterfaceProtocol value is always growing;
	 * so far, it's true from UAC1 to UAC3 (1..3)
	 */
	if (new->bInterfaceProtocol > old->bInterfaceProtocol)
		return true;

	return false;
}
