[PATCH 2/2] HID: wacom: fix freeze on open when autosuspend is on

Since the conversion from USB to HID (in v3.17), some people reported a
freeze on boot with the wacom driver. Hans managed to get a stacktrace:

So here, wacom_open is called, and then wacom_resume is called by the
PM system. However, wacom_open already took the lock when wacom_resume
tries to get it. Freeze.

A little bit of history shows that this already happened in the past
- commit f6cd378372bf ("Input: wacom - fix runtime PM related deadlock"),
and the solution was to call first the PM function before taking the lock.

The lock was introduced in commit commit e722409445fb ("Input: wacom -
implement suspend and autosuspend") when the autosuspend feature has
been added. Given that usbhid already takes care of this very same
locking between suspend/resume, I think we can simply kill the lock
in open/close.

The lock is now used also with LEDs, so we can not remove it completely.
