USB: usb-skeleton.c: fix compilation error and restore kref_put on fail in skel_open
PATCH v2 1/1 USB: usb-skeleton.c: fix compilation error and restore kref_put on fail in skel_open
From: Constantine Shulyupin <[email protected]>
Function skel_open increments usage count for the device with kref_get and the usage count should be decremented on the function failure.
Some last changes in function skel_open and finally commit 52a7499 Revert "USB: usb-skeleton.c: fix open/disconnect race" introduced a bug in function skel_open, which this patch fixes.

Well, touching file->private_data is not nice. It is correct, but really dirty. The skeleton driver should be nice. Could you introduce a second label for goto at the right place?
