USB: Handle bogus low-speed Bulk endpoints
A noticeable number of low-speed devices mistakenly include descriptors for Bulk endpoints, which is forbidden by the USB spec. In an attempt to make such devices more usable, this patch (as924) converts the descriptors to Interrupt with an interval of 1 ms.
