Subject: [ 055/117] USB: cdc-wdm: poll must return POLLHUP if device is gone

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

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

From: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@...k.no>

commit 616b6937e348ef2b4c6ea5fef2cd3c441145efb0 upstream.

Else the poll will be restarted indefinitely in a tight loop,
preventing final device cleanup.
