USB: change locking for device-level autosuspend

This patch (as1323) changes the locking requirements for
usb_autosuspend_device(), usb_autoresume_device(), and
usb_try_autosuspend_device().  This isn't a very important change;
mainly it's meant to make the locking more uniform.

The most tricky part of the patch involves changes to usbdev_open().
To avoid an ABBA locking problem, it was necessary to reduce the
region protected by usbfs_mutex.  Since that mutex now protects only
against simultaneous open and remove, this posed no difficulty -- its
scope was larger than necessary.

And it turns out that usbfs_mutex is no longer needed in
usbdev_release() at all.  The list of usbfs "ps" structures is now
protected by the device lock instead of by usbfs_mutex.
