This patch fixes several problems in the ipaq.c driver with connecting
and disconnecting pocketpc devices:
* The read urb stayed active if the connect failed, causing nullpointer
dereferences later on.
* If a write failed, the driver continued as if nothing happened. Now it
handles that case the same way as other usb serial devices (fix by
Luiz Fernando N. Capitulino <[email protected]>)
