Subject: hso: fix soft-lockup
From: Antti Kaijanmäki <antti.kaijanmaki@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Fix soft-lockup in hso.c which is triggered on SMP machine when
modem is removed while file descriptor(s) under /dev are still open:
old version called kref_put() too early which resulted in destroying
hso_serial and hso_device objects which were still used later on.
