cdc_ether: Ignore bogus union descriptor for RNDIS devices
Some RNDIS devices include a bogus CDC Union descriptor pointing to non-existing interfaces. The RNDIS code is already prepared to handle devices without a CDC Union descriptor by hardwiring the driver to use interfaces 0 and 1, which is correct for the devices with the bogus descriptor as well. So we can reuse the existing workaround.
