Subject: [PATCH 10/14] [rndis_host] Add early_init function pointer to 'struct
	rndis_data'.

Function pointer is for 'subminidrivers' that need to do work on device 
right after minidriver has initialized hardware.

For example, rndis_wlan setting device specific configuration parameters
with OID_GEN_RNDIS_CONFIG_PARAMETER right after rndis_host has 
initialized hardware with RNDIS_INIT.
