USB: pxa27x_udc: Fix deadlocks on request queueing
As reported by Antonio, there are cases where the ep->lock
can be taken twice, triggering a deadlock.
The typical sequence is :
irq_handler
\
-> gadget.complete()
\
-> pxa27x_udc.pxa_ep_queue() : ep->lock is taken
\
-> gadget.complete()
\
-> pxa27x_udc.pxa_ep_queue() : ep->lock is taken
==> *deadlock*
The patch fixes this by :
- releasing the lock each time gadget.complete() is called
- adding a check in handle_ep() to detect a recursive call,
in which case the function becomes on no-op.
The patch is still not good enough for ep0. For this unique
endpoint, another well thought over patch will be needed.
