Alan Stern 3ea15966ed [PATCH] USB: Add timeout to usb_lock_device_for_reset ...

This patch (as555) modifies the already-awkward
usb_lock_device_for_reset routine in usbcore by adding a timeout.  The
whole point of the routine is that the caller wants to acquire some
semaphores in the wrong order; protecting against the possibility of
deadlock by timing out seems only prudent.
