USB: Remove restrictions on signal numbers in devio.c

Just over a year ago (!) I had this brief exchange with Alan Stern:

>> It seems that the signal that can be used with USBDEVFS_DISCSIGNAL and 
>> in usbdevfs_urb.signr is limited to the real-time signals SIGRTMIN to 
>> SIGRTMAX. What's the rationale for this restriction? I believe that a 
>> process can kill() itself with any signal number, can't it? I was

>> USBDEVFS_DISCSIGNAL. I don't think I'll have a problem with using

Since no-one else could think of a reason either, I offer the following 
patch which allows any signal to be used with USBDEVFS_DISCSIGNAL and 
usbdevfs_urb.signr.
