[v3,1/2] usb: core: Amend initial authorized_default value

Commit Message

From: Niko Mauno <[e-mail]>

Since the wireless USB implementation has been removed and since the
behavior with authorized_default values -1 and 1 is now effectively
same, change the initial value to latter in order to stop using the
leftover value. The former value can still be passed as a module
parameter to retain backwards compatibility.

Hi,

This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman.  You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response.  He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created.  Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.

You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:

- This looks like a new version of a previously submitted patch, but you
  did not list below the --- line any changes from the previous version.
  Please read the section entitled "The canonical patch format" in the
  kernel file, Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for what
  needs to be done here to properly describe this.

If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.

thanks,

greg k-h's patch email bot

Hi Greg, apologies for any confusion I may have caused,

Geert requested some further clarification in the new Kconfig help 
section, please see:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=170747246528305&w=2

(There shouldn't be any functional change introduced between v2 and v3)

Kind regards,
-Niko

Great, but I can't take patches that are already in my tree, right?

Please submit a new one on top of what I currently have.

That always needs to be listed, as my bot says, otherwise we have no
idea what is going on here.  Remember, some of us get 1000+ emails a day
to do something with (review, apply, delete, ignore...)

thanks,
