Subject: [ 47/85] USB: Enable LPM after a failed probe.

3.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@...ux.intel.com>

commit d01f87c0ffa96cb44faa78710711eb6e974b891c upstream.

Before a driver is probed, we want to disable USB 3.0 Link Power
Management (LPM), in case the driver needs hub-initiated LPM disabled.
After the probe finishes, we want to attempt to re-enable LPM, order to
balance the LPM ref count.

When a probe fails (such as when libusual doesn't want to bind to a USB
3.0 mass storage device), make sure to balance the LPM ref counts by
re-enabling LPM.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.5, that contain
the commit 8306095fd2c1100e8244c09bf560f97aca5a311d "USB: Disable USB
3.0 LPM in critical sections."
