usbfs: fix race between open and unregister
This patch (as1106) fixes a race between opening and unregistering device files in usbfs. The current code drops its reference to the device and then reacquires it, ignoring the possibility that the device structure might have been removed in the meantime. It also doesn't check whether the device is already in the NOTATTACHED state when the file is opened.
