    USB host: Fix lockdep warning in AMD PLL quirk · 9ab7927b

    Booting latest kernel on my test machine produces a lockdep
    warning from the usb_amd_find_chipset_info() function:
    
     WARNING: at /data/lemmy/linux.trees.git/kernel/lockdep.c:2465 lockdep_trace_alloc+0x95/0xc2()

    It turns out that this function calls pci_get_device under a spin_lock
    with irqs disabled, but the pci_get_device function is only allowed in
    preemptible context.
    
    This patch fixes the warning by making all data-structure
    modifications on temporal storage and commiting this back
    into the visible structure at the end. While at it, this
    patch also moves the pci_dev_put calls out of the spinlocks
    because this function might sleep too.
