`struct urb` is a flexible structure, which means that it contains a
flexible-array member at the bottom. This could potentially lead to an
overwrite of the objects following `out_urb` in `struct midi_runtime`,
among them a function pointer.

Fix this by placing the declaration of object `out_urb` at the end of
`struct midi_runtime`.
