Subject: [PATCH v2] HID: usbhid: clear needs_remote_wakeup before usb_kill_urb

usbhid->intf->needs_remote_wakeup is set when a device is
opened, and is cleared when a device is closed.

When a usbhid device that does not support remote wake
( i.e. !device_can_wakeup() ) is closed, we fail out of
autosuspend_check() because the autosuspend check is called
before the flag is cleared as a result of usb_kill_urb(usbhid->urbin);

The result is that a device that may otherwise autosuspend will
fail to enter suspend again after all handles to it are closed.

Clear the flag first before usb_kill_urb, which may result in a
autosuspend_check().
