V4L/DVB (10325): em28xx: Fix for fail to submit URB with IRQs and Pre-emption Disabled

 =======================

The culprit in the trace is snd_pcm_action() which invokes a spin lock
which disables pre-emption which disables an IRQ which causes the
__might_sleep() function to fail the irqs_disabled() test.  Since
pre-emption is enabled then it is safe to de-allocate the memory if
you first unlink each URB.  In this instance you are safe since
pre-emption is disabled.  If pre-emption and irqs are not disabled then
call usb_kill_urb(), else call usb_unlink_urb().

Thanks to Douglas for tracking down this bug originally!!!
