Thanks for testing! That's the (hopefully) final version of it,
with the fix applied to the other dvb-usb drivers that use
data_mutex (except for the frontend ones, with uses a different
private structure, and where the mutex is initialized at attach).

Benjamin,

Could you please test it?

Thanks!

[PATCH] dvb-usb: move data_mutex to struct dvb_usb_device

The data_mutex is initialized too late, as it is needed for
each device driver's power control, causing an OOPS:

        dvb-usb: found a 'TerraTec/qanu USB2.0 Highspeed DVB-T Receiver' in 
warm state.

So, move it to the struct dvb_usb_device and initialize it
before calling the driver's callbacks.
