HID: eliminate a double lock in debug code



The path around the loop ends with the lock held, so the call to mutex_lock
is moved before the beginning of the loop.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@locked@
expression E1;
position p;
@@

read_lock(E1@p,...);

@r exists@
expression x <= locked.E1;
expression locked.E1;
expression E2;
identifier lock;
position locked.p,p1,p2;
@@

*lock@p1 (E1@p,...);
... when != E1
    when != \(x = E2\|&x\)
*lock@p2 (E1,...);
// </smpl>
