usbcore: help drivers to change device configs
It's generally a bad idea for USB interface drivers to try to change a
device's configuration, and usbcore doesn't provide any way for them
to do it. However in a few exceptional circumstances it can make
sense. This patch (as767) adds a roundabout mechanism to help drivers
that may need it.
