From: Reilly Grant <reillyg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The new USBDEVFS_DROP_PRIVILEGES ioctl allows a process to voluntarily
relinquish the ability to issue other ioctls that may interfere with
other processes and drivers that have claimed an interface on the
device.

Changes in v3:
- Switch ioctl to use a __u32 given the iface qty is capped at 32
- Reword comments as requested by Alan
- Allow callers to shrink the allowed interfaces mask

Ok, I'll change it.

The test should be:

			if (usb_interface_claimed(interface) &&
					!test_bit(number, &ps->ifclaimed)) {

We don't want to prevent people from resetting a device merely because
they have claimed an interface.  Only if someone else has claimed one.

Sounds sensible, now changed as well.

  	return usb_reset_device(ps->dev);
  }

Also, it wouldn't hurt to change proc_get_capabilities() and
include/uapi/linux/usbdevicefs.h to add a USBDEVFS_CAP_DROP_PRIVILEGES
bit.

Good idea, I've added a bit now. I'm writing some docs and polishing a program to test this as Greg requested and I'll submit v4 then.

Thanks!
Emilio
