    USB: fix problems with duplicate endpoint addresses · 0a8fd134

    When checking a new device's descriptors, the USB core does not check
    for duplicate endpoint addresses.  This can cause a problem when the
    sysfs files for those endpoints are created; trying to create multiple
    files with the same name will provoke a WARNING:

    This patch prevents the problem by checking for duplicate endpoint
    addresses during enumeration and skipping any duplicates.
