This patch introduces an interface authorization for USB devices.
The kernel supports a device authorization because of wireless USB.
But the new interface authorization allows to authorize or deauthorize
individual interfaces instead authorization or deauthorize a whole device.
Therefore the authorized attribute is introduced for each interface.
Each patch depends on all patches with a lesser number.
