USB: accept RNDIS configs if there's no alternative
This patch (as1410) makes a slight change to the strategy used for choosing a default configuration. Currently we skip configs whose first interface is RNDIS, if the kernel wasn't built with the corresponding driver. This risks losing access to the other interfaces in those configs. In addition, if there is only one config then we will end up not configuring the device at all. This changes the logic; now such configurations will be skipped only if there is at least one other config.
