USB: cdc-acm.c: fix recursive lock in acm_start_wb error path

Fixes an obvious bug in cdc-acm by avoiding a recursive lock on
acm_start_wb()'s error path. Should apply towards 2.6.27 stable and
2.6.28.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.27-2-pae #109
---------------------------------------------
python/31449 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&acm->write_lock){++..}, at: [<f89a0348>] acm_start_wb+0x5c/0x7b [cdc_acm]

but task is already holding lock:
 (&acm->write_lock){++..}, at: [<f89a04fb>] acm_tty_write+0xe1/0x167 [cdc_acm]

other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by python/31449:
 #0:  (&tty->atomic_write_lock){--..}, at: [<c0260fae>] tty_write_lock+0x14/0x3b
 #1:  (&acm->write_lock){++..}, at: [<f89a04fb>] acm_tty_write+0xe1/0x167 [cdc_acm]
