[PATCH] staging: gdm72xx: Fix spinlock recursion on gdm_usb_send_complete

From: Ben Chan
Date: Thu Jun 07 2012 - 02:01:27 EST


This patch fixes a spinlock recursion bug on several call sites of
gdm_usb_send_complete by not calling spin_lock_irqsave on
urb->context->tx_cxt->lock when the lock has already been acquired.
