USB: ldusb: fix use-after-free on disconnect race

mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure after releasing the lock
and therefore cannot be used to manage lifetime of objects directly
(unlike spinlocks and refcounts). [1][2]

Use a kref to release the driver data to avoid use-after-free in
mutex_unlock() when release() races with disconnect().

                   non-atomic")

                   other sleeping locks, can still use the lock object
                   after it's unlocked")
