Subject: ALSA: usb-audio: Fix runtime PM unbalance

From: Takashi Iwai <[email protected]>

commit 9003ebb13f61e8c78a641e0dda7775183ada0625 upstream.

The fix for deadlock in PM in commit [1ee23fe07ee8: ALSA: usb-audio:
Fix deadlocks at resuming] introduced a new check of in_pm flag. However, the brainless patch author evaluated it in a wrong way (logical AND instead of logical OR), thus usb_autopm_get_interface() is wrongly called at probing, leading to unbalance of runtime PM refcount.

This patch fixes it by correcting the logic.
