It's been almost twenty years since USB drivers returned a data pointer
from their probe routines in order to bind to an interface.
Time to update the documentation for usb_driver_claim_interface().

* No device driver should directly modify internal usb_interface or
* usb_device structure members.
*
- * Few drivers should need to use this routine, since the most natural
- * way to bind to an interface is to return the private data from
- * the driver's probe() method.
- *
* Callers must own the device lock, so driver probe() entries don't need
* extra locking, but other call contexts may need to explicitly claim that
* lock.
