After the code was modified to use urb anchors ("rtl8187: Use usb anchor
facilities to manage urbs"), rtl8187 began generating an intermittent GPF
on shutdown when using SLUB with debugging enabled. Furthermore, rebooting
the system with a ping running caused a GPF every time. There are two problems:
(1) incorrect locking in the rtl8187_rx_cb() routine, a pre-existing bug that
apparently had not been triggered before, and (2) duplicate freeing of receive
skbs that was probably introduced with the change to anchors.
