A change like this will probably come back and bite us later.
We already allocated the additional hcd_priv_size bytes for primary hcd.
Future code can no longer rely on driver->hcd_priv_size being valid after this.

If saving this amount of memory is important then maybe look into
__usb_create_hcd() and avoid allocating the extra bytes if the hcd is not
the primary hcd.

Thanks
