The problem occurs in follow path.

printer_read()
|
+---setup_rx_reqs()
|
+---usb_ep_queue()
|
+---...
|
+---rx_complete()

Although it is clear from code, we can't get it normally.
only when we enable some spin_lock debug config option, we can find it.
eg:
BUG: spinlock lockup on CPU#0, g_printer_test_/584
 lock: bf05e158, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: g_printer_test_/584, .owner_cpu: 0

The root cause is that we use the same lock two time in a path, so to avoid
the deadlock, we need to unlock in setup_rx_reqs(), and only unlock.
