Hi Alan, thanks for doing this.  It looks and works OK.  I added some name
changes: all struct usb_interface pointers are now called intf; and, when
reasonable, variables holding interface numbers are now all called ifnum.
This drowns your original changes in a sea of churning names, I hope you
don't mind.
