Always reporting "bad CDC descriptors" does not seem correct. Not
being able to claim the interface is probably some other sort of
problem.
It might be better to change the dev_dbg()s to dev_err()s, and drop
the dev_info() here. You can then add additional dev_err() before the
goto's you are adding.
