I don't think you need this runtime test. You can just make sure that
sizeof(ps->interface_allowed_mask) == sizeof(ps->ifclaimed) at build
time.

I do find this variable and arbitrary limit a bit confusing, but that's
not your fault - I guess it is an indication that ifnums > 31 are rare
:)

"unsigned long" isn't a very good choice here, is it?

I went with a type matching ifclaimed on struct usb_dev_state to keep the limit the same, but I guess it's not the best idea for an ioctl. I can switch it to __u32, keeping the runtime check above as is, or use __u64. Which one would you prefer?

Thanks for the review!
Emilio
