Subject: [PATCH RESEND v3 1/2] net: pegasus: Use the new usb control message API.

The old usb_control_msg() let the caller handle the error and also did not
account for partial reads.  Since these are now considered harmful, move the
driver over to usb_control_msg_recv/send() calls.

Added small note about why set_registers() can't be used to substitute
set_register().
