USB: mark uas driver as BROKEN
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree

Subject: USB: mark uas driver as BROKEN
As reported https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51031, the UAS
driver causes problems and has been asked to be not built into any of
the major distributions. To prevent users from running into problems
with it, and for distros that were not notified, just mark the whole
thing as broken.
