HID: hiddev: use usb_find_interface, get rid of BKL

This removes the private hiddev_table in the usbhid
driver and changes it to use usb_find_interface
instead.

The advantage is that we can avoid the race between
usb_register_dev and usb_open and no longer need the
big kernel lock.

This doesn't introduce race condition -- the intf pointer could be
invalidated only in hiddev_disconnect() through usb_deregister_dev(),
but that will block on minor_rwsem and not actually remove the device
until usb_open().

* The obvious fix -- introducing mutex to guard hiddev_table[]
