Subject: [PATCH 3.16 007/328] USB: serial: sierra: fix potential deadlock
 at close

3.16.62-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: John Ogness <john.ogness@...utronix.de>

commit e60870012e5a35b1506d7b376fddfb30e9da0b27 upstream.

The portdata spinlock can be taken in interrupt context (via
sierra_outdat_callback()).
Disable interrupts when taking the portdata spinlock when discarding
deferred URBs during close to prevent a possible deadlock.

Fixes: 014333f77c0b ("USB: sierra: fix urb and memory leak on disconnect")
