Ugly ugly ugly.  Conditional locking is error prone ... don't.

Couldn't you just have the usb_ep_queue() method wrap lock calls
around a common routine called by that and the status reporting code?

Or just have the status reporting code stuff the two bytes directly
into the FIFO?  (Which is what a lot of other drivers do.)
