down_trylock() returns 1 on failure, 0 on success. This differs from spin_trylock(), mutex_trylock() and common sense. Or as ocfs2 put it "kernel 1, world 0". Rename it to down_try() (which makes more sense anyway), and reverse it. Fortunately there aren't a huge number of callers left. I took the liberty of reversing the sense of usb_trylock_device() without renaming it: it's only used in one place anyway.
