Now you race against a double time out

CPU A								CPU B

__usbhid_submit_report()
time_after()
usb_unlink_urb()
-- this has to go to the hardware -->
									hid_irq_out()
									if (status != -ECONNRESET)
									--> no lock
									hid_submit_out()
__usbhid_submit_report()
time_after()
									usb_submit_urb()
usb_unlink_urb()
