This is a patch that introduces an interface authorization for USB devices.
The kernel supports already a device authorization bacause of wireless USB.
But the new interface authorization allows to enable or disable individual interfaces per bitmask
instead allow or deny a whole device.
The patch is made now much simplier as suggested by Alan Stern.
Each patch depends on all patches with a lesser number.

authorization

claiming
