And the 'claimed' flag should be used for the ep autoconfig
mechanism alone. We may want to reset it during the autoconfig
phase for multiple configs and alt-interfaces. So there should be
separate 'claimed' and 'enabled' flags.

We ran into similar issues before with this very scenario. Handling
of set_config(0 or N), in both addressed and configured states, and
set_interface requests.
