[064/104] staging: usbip: bugfix for deadlock

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Dec 07 2011 - 11:31:28 EST


3.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Westgeest <bart@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 438957f8d4a84daa7fa5be6978ad5897a2e9e5e5 upstream.

Interrupts must be disabled prior to calling usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep.
If interrupts are not disabled, it can potentially lead to a deadlock.
The deadlock is readily reproduceable on a slower (ARM based) device
such as the TI Pandaboard.
