Paul Bolle 4014dfae3c isdn: bas_gigaset: use usb_fill_int_urb() properly
The switch to make bas_gigaset use usb_fill_int_urb() - instead of
filling that urb "by hand" - missed the subtle ordering of the previous
code.

See, before the switch urb->dev was set to a member somewhere deep in a
complicated structure and then supplied to usb_rcvisocpipe() and
usb_sndisocpipe(). After that switch urb->dev wasn't set to anything
specific before being supplied to those two macros. This triggers a
nasty oops:

    ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt ]---

No-one noticed because this Oops is apparently only triggered by setting
up an ISDN data connection on a live ISDN line on a gigaset base (ie,
the PBX that the gigaset driver support). Very few people do that
running present day kernels.

Anyhow, a little code reorganization makes this problem go away, while
avoiding the subtle ordering that was used in the past. So let's do
that.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
