[ 073/108] usbnet: dont clear urb->dev in tx_complete

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "tom.leiming@gmail.com" <tom.leiming@gmail.com>

commit 5d5440a835710d09f0ef18da5000541ec98b537a upstream.

URB unlinking is always racing with its completion and tx_complete
may be called before or during running usb_unlink_urb, so tx_complete
must not clear urb->dev since it will be used in unlink path,
otherwise invalid memory accesses or usb device leak may be caused
inside usb_unlink_urb.
