usb: Remove annoying warning about bogus URB

When USB Wi-Fi dongle based on Atheros AR9271 is connected to OHCI
(USB 1.1) controller following warnings flood debug console:

With removed warning Wi-Fi dongle works properly.

Even though this is not the best solution it gets us a working Wireless
AP. Anyways new discussion was started in linux-usb mailing list to find
a proper solution instead of that hack.

Subject: [PATCH] usb: Remove annoying warning about bogus URB
When ath9k-htc Wi-Fi dongle is used with generic OHCI controller
infinite stream of warnings appears in debug console like this:

There're some discussions in mailing lists proposing to disable
that particular check alltogether and magically all seem to work
fine with muted warning.
Anyways new thread on that regard could be found here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-snps-arc/2016-July/001310.html
Let's see what comes out of that new discussion, hopefully patching
of generic USB stuff won't be required then.
