Subject: [PATCH] staging: vt6656: Fix URB submitted while active warning.

commit ae5943de8c8c4438cbac5cda599ff0b88c224468 upstream.

This error happens because PIPEnsControlOut and PIPEnsControlIn unlock the
spin lock for delay, letting in another thread.

The patch moves the current MP_SET_FLAG to before filling
of sUsbCtlRequest for pControlURB and clears it in event of failing.

Any thread calling either function while fMP_CONTROL_READS or fMP_CONTROL_WRITES
flags set will return STATUS_FAILURE.
