[PATCH] heci: fix spinlock order mess of device_lock and read_io_lock.

From: Dongxiao Xu
Date: Sun May 31 2009 - 10:45:20 EST


In orginal code, the device_lock and read_io_lock is mess order when nested,
which may bring dead lock. This patch unify the spinlock order of device_lock
and read_io_lock. First acquire device_lock, then read_io_lock.
