Subject: [PATCH] usb/hcd: remove unnecessary local_irq_save

Remove the use of local_irq_save() and IRQF_DISABLED, no longer needed since
interrupt handlers are always run with interrupts disabled on the
current CPU.

Tested successfully with 3.12.0-rc4 on my PC. Didn't find
any issue because of this change.
