There could be chances where the usb_ep_queue() could fail and trigger complete() handler with error status. In this case, if usb_ep_queue() is called with lock held and the triggered complete() handler is waiting for the same lock to be cleared could result in a deadlock situation and could result in system hang. To aviod this scenerio, call usb_ep_queue() with lock removed. This patch does the same.
