staging: usbip: cleanup and fix of vhci_hub_status

Changed setting the status bits to a byte-oriented approach. Number of
written status bits is now based on VHCI_NPORT, instead of casting
status buffer to a long. This fixes a stack corruption bug on 64-bit
based architectures, and potential byte order / endianness related
issues.

In addition updated function comments, and log statements.

- * This function is almostly the same as dummy_hcd.c:dummy_hub_status() without
- * suspend/resume support. But, it is modified to provide multiple ports.
+ * Returns 0 if the status hasn't changed, or the number of bytes in buf.
+ * Ports are 0-indexed from the HCD point of view,
+ * and 1-indexed from the USB core pointer of view.
  *
  * @buf: a bitmap to show which port status has been changed.
- *  bit  0: reserved or used for another purpose?
+ *  bit  0: reserved
  *  bit  1: the status of port 0 has been changed.
  *  bit  2: the status of port 1 has been changed.
  *  ...
- *  bit  7: the status of port 6 has been changed.
- *  bit  8: the status of port 7 has been changed.
- *  ...
- *  bit 15: the status of port 14 has been changed.
- *
- * So, the maximum number of ports is 31 ( port 0 to port 30) ?
- *
- * The return value is the actual transferred length in byte. If nothing has
- * been changed, return 0. In the case that the number of ports is less than or
- * equal to 6 (VHCI_NPORTS==7), return 1.
