For some USB devices we might want to do something different for usb_choose_configuration(). One example here is the r8152 driver where we want to end up using the vendor driver with the preferred interface. The r8152 driver tried to make things work by implementing a USB generic_subclass driver and then overriding the normal config selection after it happened. This is less than ideal and also caused breakage if someone deauthorized and re-authorized the USB device because the USB core ended up going back to it's default logic for choosing the best config. I made an attempt to fix this [1] but it was a bit ugly. Let's do this better and allow USB generic_subclass drivers to override usb_choose_configuration().
