[PATCH] fix for race problem in DVB USB drivers (dibusb)

Fixed race between submitting streaming URBs in the driver and starting
the actual transfer in hardware (demodulator and USB controller) which
sometimes lead to garbled data transfers. URBs are now submitted first,
then the transfer is enabled. Dibusb devices and clones are now fully
functional again.
