USB: limit usbfs snooping of URB contents 

The usbfs_snoop facility can be very useful for debugging problems
involving usbfs.  However, it always prints out the entire contents of
every URB.  When dealing with large quantities of data, this can be
less than helpful.

This patch ameliorates the situation by adding a module parameter to
usbcore for controlling the maximum number of bytes to print when
snooping an URB.  This makes debugging much easier.  For backward
compatibility, the default value is set unreasonably high.
