roccat_disconnect() dropped devices_lock between reading device->exist
and later checking device->open to decide whether to free the device,
letting a concurrent roccat_release() free it first and turning the
later check into a use-after-free. Fix by keeping the whole lookup,
state update, and free-or-keep decision inside one devices_lock
critical section.
roccat_connect() also published the device via devices[minor] and
device_create() before initializing device->readers_lock and
device->cbuf_lock, letting a racing open() on the newly created node
take an uninitialized mutex. Fix by completing all initialization
before publishing the device.
