[RESEND PATCH v2 1/2] usb: serial: handle -EPROTO quietly in generic_read_bulk

[Jeremiah Mahler]

If a USB serial device is unplugged while there is an active program
using the device it will spam the logs with -EPROTO (71) messages as it
attempts to retry.

Most serial usb drivers (metro-usb, pl2303, mos7840, ...) only output
these messages for debugging.  The generic driver treats these as
errors.

Change the default output for the generic serial driver from error to
debug.
