[PATCH 024/115] ALSA: snd-usb: try harder to find USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT

3.5.7.13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Mack <zonque at gmail.com>

commit ebfc594c02148b6a85c2f178cf167a44a3c3ce10 upstream.

The USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT class-specific endpoint descriptor is usually
stuffed directly after the standard USB endpoint descriptor, and this is
where the driver currently expects it to be.

There are, however, devices in the wild that have it the other way
around in their descriptor sets, so the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT comes
*before* the standard enpoint. Devices known to implement it that way
are "Sennheiser BTD-500" and Plantronics USB headsets.

When the driver can't find the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT, it won't be able to
change sample rates, as the bitmask for the validity of this command is
storen in bmAttributes of that descriptor.

Fix this by searching the entire interface instead of just the extra
bytes of the first endpoint, in case the latter fails.
