USB: usb-skeleton leaking locks on open

This weekend I was hacking around with a trivial USB driver for talking
to the boot load firmware of a USB Bit Whacker.  It's running the
MicroChip Pic18 boot loader firmware and I'm putting together a flash
program for writing new FW to the thing.

Anyway in my use of the usb-skeleton.c as my starting point I discovered
my test program was getting hung up after attempting to write a buffer.
The application and driver where hung in a way that required me to
reboot to get it to clean up so I could try again.

It turned out the code path through skel_open can grap the driver's
io_mutex lock and forget to release it.

The following patch fixes the problem for me.
