[PATCH] [235/275] USB: uss720 fixup refcount position

[Andi Kleen]

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Peter Holik <peter@xxxxxxxx>

commit adaa3c6342b249548ea830fe8e02aa5b45be8688 upstream.

My testprog do a lot of bitbang - after hours i got following warning and my machine lockups:
WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.38/lib/kref.c:34
After debugging uss720 driver i discovered that the completion callback was called before
usb_submit_urb returns. The callback frees the request structure that is krefed on return by
usb_submit_urb.
