The issue, as I understand it is that non-interrupt code may obtain the
lock and then the interrupt code is executed... hence the deadlock and the
need to use spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore().

If that is correct, is there any problem with the following approach?

The key difference is the replacement of spin_lock() with spin_trylock()
such that if the non-interrupt code has already obtained the lock, the
interrupt will not deadlock but instead take the else path and schedule a
framebuffer update at the next interval.

static void g13_fb_urb_completion(struct urb *urb)
{
	struct g13_data *data = urb->context;
	spin_unlock(&data->fb_urb_lock);
}

static int g13_fb_send(struct hid_device *hdev)
{
	struct usb_interface *intf;
	struct usb_device *usb_dev;
	struct g13_data *data = hid_get_g13data(hdev);

	struct usb_host_endpoint *ep;
	unsigned int pipe;
	int retval = 0;

	/*
	 * Try and lock the framebuffer urb to prevent access if we have
	 * submitted it. If we can't lock it we'll have to delay this update
	 * until the next framebuffer interval.
	 *
	 * Fortunately, we already have the infrastructure in place with the
	 * framebuffer deferred I/O driver to schedule the delayed update.
	 */
	if (likely(spin_trylock(&data->fb_urb_lock))) {
		/* Get the usb device to send the image on */
		intf = to_usb_interface(hdev->dev.parent);
		usb_dev = interface_to_usbdev(intf);

		pipe = usb_sndintpipe(usb_dev, 0x02);

		ep = usb_dev->ep_out[usb_pipeendpoint(pipe)];

		if (unlikely(!ep)) {
			spin_unlock(&data->fb_urb_lock);
			return -EINVAL;
		}

		pipe = (pipe & ~(3 << 30)) | (PIPE_INTERRUPT << 30);
		usb_fill_int_urb(data->fb_urb, usb_dev, pipe, data->fb_vbitmap,
				 G13_VBITMAP_SIZE, g13_fb_urb_completion, NULL,
				 ep->desc.bInterval);
		data->fb_urb->context = data;
		data->fb_urb->actual_length = 0;

		retval = usb_submit_urb(data->fb_urb, GFP_NOIO);
		if (unlikely(retval < 0)) {
			/*
			 * We need to unlock the framebuffer urb lock since
			 * the urb submission failed and therefore
			 * g13_fb_urb_completion() won't be called.
			 */
			spin_unlock(&data->fb_urb_lock);
			return retval;
		}
	} else {
		schedule_delayed_work(&data->fb_info->deferred_work,
				      data->fb_defio.delay);
	}

	return retval;
}
