So my 2.5.67 kernel was humming along nicely when I got the idea to
unplug a USB keyboard.  Instant deadlock.  The backtrace shows this:

Call Trace:
 [<e0000000048c4260>] hcd_free_dev+0x140/0x240
 [<e0000000048b96e0>] usb_release_dev+0x100/0x140

 [<e000000004411e40>] ia64_leave_kernel+0x0/0x240

<hcd_free_dev+0x140> translates into line 1249 in hcd.c, where it
does:

	spin_lock_irqsave (&hcd_data_lock, flags);

The deadlock is pretty obvious: the same lock has already been
acquired urb_unlink(), 4 levels up in the call-chain.

Anybody have a fix for this?
