It's not strictly necessary but assume that the code was only tested
with a single interface. Given the general state of u-boot's USB stack
I wouldn't be surprised if it would blew up with USB descriptors maxing
out the number of interfaces / endpoints. So limiting it to the minimum
of what's needed to support the device in front of me looks like the
safer option.
