USB: skip Set-Interface(0) if already in altsetting 0
When a driver unbinds from an interface, usbcore always sends a
Set-Interface request to reinstall altsetting 0. Unforunately, quite
a few devices have buggy firmware that crashes when it receives this
request.
To avoid such problems, this patch (as1180) arranges to send the
Set-Interface request only when the interface is not already in
altsetting 0.
