[PATCH] USB: add usb_interrupt_msg() function for api completeness.

Really just a wrapper around usb_bulk_msg() but now it's documented
much better.

* This function sends a simple interrupt message to a specified endpoint and
* waits for the message to complete, or timeout.
*
* If successful, it returns 0, otherwise a negative error number. The number
* of actual bytes transferred will be stored in the actual_length paramater.
*
* Don't use this function from within an interrupt context, like a bottom half
* handler. If you need an asynchronous message, or need to send a message
* from within interrupt context, use usb_submit_urb() If a thread in your
* driver uses this call, make sure your disconnect() method can wait for it to
* complete. Since you don't have a handle on the URB used, you can't cancel
* the request.
