Revert "USB: don't explicitly reenable root-hub status interrupts"

This reverts commit e8721549

.

Andrey Borzenkov reports that it resulted in a totally hung machine for
him when loading the OHCI driver.  Extensive netconsole capture with
SysRq output shows that modprobe gets stuck in ohci_hub_status_data()
when probing and enabling the OHCI controller, see for example

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/5/236

for an analysis.

The problem appears to be an interrupt flood triggered by the commit
that gets reverted, and Andrey confirmed that the revert makes things
work for him again.
