[patch for 2.6.32? 2/2] hso: fix soft-lockup

[akpm@linux-foundation.org]

From: Antti Kaijanmäki <antti.kaijanmaki@nomovok.com>

Fix soft-lockup in hso.c which is triggered on SMP machine when
modem is removed while file descriptor(s) under /dev are still open:

  old version called kref_put() too early which resulted in destroying
  hso_serial and hso_device objects which were still used later on.
