commit 0543e4e upstream.

Since commit ae8709b ("USB: core: Make do_proc_control() and
do_proc_bulk() killable") if a device has the USB_QUIRK_DELAY_CTRL_MSG
quirk set, it will temporarily block all other URBs (e.g. interrupts)
while sleeping due to a control.

This results in noticeable delays when, for example, a userspace usbfs
application is sending URB interrupts at a high rate to a keyboard and
simultaneously updates the lock indicators using controls. Interrupts
with direction set to IN are also affected by this, meaning that
delivery of HID reports (containing scancodes) to the usbfs application
is delayed as well.

This patch fixes the regression by calling msleep() while the device
mutex is unlocked, as was the case originally with usb_control_msg().
