3.13.11.9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Joe Lawrence <[email protected]> commit c605f3cdff53a743f6d875b76956b239deca1272 upstream. During surprise device hotplug removal tests, it was observed that hub_events may try to call usb_lock_device on a device that has already been freed. Protect the usb_device by taking out a reference (under the hub_event_lock) when hub_events pulls it off the list, returning the reference after hub_events is finished using it.
