[PATCH 1/2] usbfs: Remove extraneous disconnection checks

[Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>]

[2 USB patches to be applied to the latest -bk tree, both fixing real
bugs. I figured it's easier than creating a whole bk tree for them]



This patch fixes a bug in the usbfs code.  The driver is too zealous about
checking for disconnected devices before doing things.  In particular, it
is necessary to reap all outstanding asynchronous URBs and unbind from
interfaces when the device file is closed, even if the device is no longer
connected.
