If an interface has an associated devicetree node with status disabled,
do not register the device.  This is useful for boards with a built-in
multifunction USB device where some functions are broken or otherwise
undesired.

Shouldn't you at least print some message out saying you are skipping
this?  Odds are this is going to cause regressions in devices that were
not expecting this, right?  So pointing them at why their devices now no
longer work would be good :)

thanks,

They will only be skipped if there is a device tree node for the
interface _and_ it has and explicit status = "disabled" property.
The default is still to create devices for all interfaces.

That said, printing a message is probably a good idea anyway.  Would
"info" level be appropriate for this?

Yes, but today if you have such a status field set, it will not skip
them, so who knows who has their DT messed up :)

That is a good idea.
