Subject[PATCH 3.16 036/204] USB: gadgetfs: fix copy_to_user while holding spinlock
3.16.52-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

commit 6e76c01e71551cb221c1f3deacb9dcd9a7346784 upstream.

The gadgetfs driver as a long-outstanding FIXME, regarding a call of
copy_to_user() made while holding a spinlock. This patch fixes the
issue by dropping the spinlock and using the dev->udc_usage mechanism
introduced by another recent patch to guard against status changes
while the lock isn't held.
