[15/46] USB: ipaq: fix oops when device is plugged in

From: Greg KH

2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 06bad89da686f6323e95cf925105e8cf88d87caf upstream.

This patch (as1293) fixes a problem with the ipaq serial driver. It
tries to bind to all the interfaces, even those that don't have enough
endpoints. The symptom is an invalid memory reference and oops when
the device is plugged in.
