Continuation lines in this file are indented by 2 tab stops, not 1 
space.

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.

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