usbutils 013 release

From: Greg KH

It's been a long time, and there have been a number of tiny bugfixes in
the usbutils package backing up, as well as one major issue finally
fixed that had been reported a lot, so it's time for a new release.

One other "major" change is we now trust sysfs to have the string values
for the vendor/product descriptors, instead of having to ask the device
directly for them. That should save a bit of USB bandwidth, but for
containers that have sysfs blocked off, this might cause some problems.
If so, please let me know.

Tarballs can be found on kernel.org here:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/usb/usbutils/

Or the github/kernel.org repo also have the updated trees:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usbutils.git

and the full shortlog is below.

thanks,
