defer_bh() takes the lock which is hold during unlink_urbs(). The safe
walk suggest that the skb will be removed from the list and this is done
by defer_bh() so it seems to be okay to drop the lock here.

According to [0] the usb driver has to assume that the HCD will call the
->complete() callback and therefore not hold any lock which are acquired
in the ->complete() callback.
