    usb: Remove annoying warning about bogus URB
    
    When USB Wi-Fi dongle based on Atheros AR9271 is connected to OHCI
    (USB 1.1) controller following warnings flood debug console:
    ------------------------>8---------------------------

    With removed warning Wi-Fi dongle works properly.
    
    Even though this is not the best solution it gets us a working Wireless
    AP. Anyways new discussion was started in linux-usb mailing list to find
    a proper solution instead of that hack.

+-------------------------->8----------------------
+
+There're some discussions in mailing lists proposing to disable
+that particular check alltogether and magically all seem to work
+fine with muted warning.
+
+Anyways new thread on that regard could be found here:
+http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-snps-arc/2016-July/001310.html
+
+Let's see what comes out of that new discussion, hopefully patching
+of generic USB stuff won't be required then.
