Looks good!  Thanks a lot for figuring that out.  I was staring myself
blind at this.  Yes, it looks very obvious when you point it out like
that.

I had even noticed the unlocked desc->outbuf assignment, but in my
naĩvity I just tried to move the mutex_lock in front of it.  Which of
course didn't help a bit as the buffer would be used in wdm_out_callback

I guess you'll wrap this up and submit instead of my helpless patch, so
that this can be fixed for 3.4?
