commit 33a7813219f208f4952ece60ee255fd983272dec upstream.
Fix a potential deadlock if disconnect races with open.
Since commit d4ead16f50f9 ("USB: prevent char device open/deregister
race") core holds an rw-semaphore while open is called and when
releasing the minor number during deregistration. This can lead to an
ABBA deadlock if a driver takes a lock in open which it also holds
during deregistration.
This effectively reverts commit 78663ecc344b ("USB: disconnect open race
in legousbtower") which needlessly introduced this issue after a generic
fix for this race had been added to core by commit d4ead16f50f9 ("USB:
prevent char device open/deregister race").
Fixes: 78663ecc344b ("USB: disconnect open race in legousbtower")
