[RESEND PATCH] staging: vt6656: make spin_lock_irq() human readable

[Martin Kepplinger]

Don't require FIRMWAREbDownload() to, first off, unlock a held lock.
Thus do all locking in main_usb.c and hold it for a insignificantly
shorter period of time. This makes the affected area significantly more
readable though.

I resend https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/30/453 and add devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
after waiting a week or so.

This fixes a sparse warning too, and uses less spin_lock functions.
Maybe someone can think it through.
