commit 0b3144da31f855fce652303f588416a60991bdef
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

There are a number of places where we accidentally pass in a constant
structure to later cast it off to a dynamic one, and then attempt to
grab a lock on it, which is not a good idea. To help resolve this, move
the dynamic id lock out of the dynamic id structure for the driver and
into one single lock for all USB dynamic ids. As this lock should never
have any real contention (it's only every accessed when a device is
added or removed, which is always serialized) there should not be any
difference except for some memory savings.
Note, this just converts the existing use of the dynamic id lock to the
new static lock, there is one place that is accessing the dynamic id
list without grabbing the lock, that will be fixed up in a follow-on
change.
