USB: serial: fix sysfs-attribute removal deadlock

Fix driver new_id sysfs-attribute removal deadlock by making sure to
not hold any locks that the attribute operations grab when removing the
attribute.

Specifically, usb_serial_deregister holds the table mutex when
deregistering the driver, which includes removing the new_id attribute.
This can lead to a deadlock as writing to new_id increments the
attribute's active count before trying to grab the same mutex in
usb_serial_probe.

The deadlock can easily be triggered by inserting a sleep in
usb_serial_deregister and writing the id of an unbound device to new_id
during module unload.

As the table mutex (in this case) is used to prevent subdriver unload
during probe, it should be sufficient to only hold the lock while
manipulating the usb-serial driver list during deregister. A racing
probe will then either fail to find a matching subdriver or fail to get
the corresponding module reference.

Since v3.15-rc1 this also triggers the following lockdep warning:
