This patch (as952) adjusts the spinlock usage in the root-hub
emulation part of usbcore, to make it match more closely the pattern
used by regular host controller drivers. To wit: The private lock
(usb_hcd_root_hub_lock) is held throughout the important parts, and it
is dropped temporarily without re-enabling interrupts around the call
to usb_hcd_giveback_urb().
A nice side effect is that the code now avoids calling
local_irq_save(), thereby becoming more RT-friendly.
