I added a "the redundant" before "usb_kill_urb()" in the above sentence
to make it more clear why this was done.

And line-wrapped you commit message (at about 72 columns).

I also used a common prefix and shortened the summary to:

	USB: serial: io_edgeport: fix possible sleep-in-atomic

Just some minor nits, that you can keep in mind for your next patch
submission.
