4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Alan Stern <[email protected]> commit 07d316a22e119fa301fd7dba7f1e1adfd4f72c05 upstream. The locking in hub_activate() is not adequate to provide full mutual exclusion with hub_quiesce(). The subroutine locks the hub's usb_interface, but the callers of hub_quiesce() (such as hub_pre_reset() and hub_event()) hold the lock to the hub's usb_device. This patch changes hub_activate() to make it acquire the same lock as those other routines.
