[PATCH] USB: usblp: add USBLP_QUIRK_NO_SET_INTF flag

From: Jeremy Figgins
Date: Sun Jan 17 2021 - 16:58:39 EST


Certain devices such as Winbond Virtual Com Port,
which is used in some usb printers, will stop
responding after the usb_control_msg_send()
calls in usb_set_interface(). These devices work
fine without having usb_set_interface() called, so
this flag prevents that call.

The naming is designed to mirror the existing
USB_QUIRK_NO_SET_INTF flag, but that flag is
not sufficient to make these devices work.
