	[PATCH] USB: fix modem_run
	
	I entered a patch which adds "exclusive_access" lock into 2.4.29, to fix
	devices which cannot handle simultaneous accesses. This caused a regression
	with European ADSL modems. An ioctl USBDEVFS_REAPURB allows a process to enter
	the kernel and wait for USB I/O to finish. Naturally, this should not take
	exclusive_access, or nothing will ever finish.
	
	This patch is essentially the patch by Sergey Vlasov with my additions
	a) to allow ENOTTY returned without taking a lock and b) to filter ENOIOCTLCMD,
	which is improper to leak to userspace.
