Alan Stern 0a8fd13462 USB: fix problems with duplicate endpoint addresses
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:

WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 865 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x8a/0xa0
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename
'/devices/platform/dummy_hcd.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:64.0/ep_05'

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

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
