Revert "usbip: Implement a match function to fix usbip"
This commit reverts commit 7a2f2974f265 ("usbip: Implement a match function to fix usbip"). In summary, commit d5643d2249b2 ("USB: Fix device driver race") inadvertently broke usbip functionality, which I resolved in an incorrect manner by introducing a match function to usbip, usbip_match(), that unconditionally returns true. However, the usbip_match function, as is, causes usbip to take over virtual devices used by syzkaller for USB fuzzing, which is a regression reported by Andrey Konovalov. Furthermore, in conjunction with the fix of another bug, handled by another patch titled "usbcore/driver: Fix specific driver selection" in this patch set, the usbip_match function causes unexpected USB subsystem behaviour when the usbip_host driver is loaded. The unexpected behaviour can be qualified as follows: - If commit 41160802ab8e ("USB: Simplify USB ID table match") is included in the kernel, then all USB devices are bound to the usbip_host driver, which appears to the user as if all USB devices were disconnected. - If the same commit (41160802ab8e) is not in the kernel (as is the case with v5.8.10) then all USB devices are re-probed and re-bound to their original device drivers, which appears to the user as a disconnection and re-connection of USB devices. Please note that this commit will make usbip non-operational again, until yet another patch in this patch set is merged, titled "usbcore/driver: Accommodate usbip".
