Subject: usb: make module xhci_hcd removable

From: Arthur Demchenkov <[email protected]>

commit b04c846ceaad42f9e37f3626c7e8f457603863f0 upstream.

Fixed regression. After commit 29e409f0f761 ("xhci: Allow xHCI drivers to be built as separate modules") the module xhci_hcd became non-removable. That behaviour is not expected and there're no notes about it in commit message. The module should be removable as it blocks PM suspend/resume functions (Debian Bug#666406).
