change xorg screen dimension on login with xrandr 
* create modline setting with cvt for desired resolution

* add new modline with xrandr --newmode

* add mode to output with xrandr --addmode

* set output and dimension with xrandr --output and --mode

The needed steps are done in

/etc/X11/Xsession.d/45custom_xrandr-settings

USB: uss720 fixup refcount position 
My testprog do a lot of bitbang - after hours i got following warning and my machine lockups:

WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.38/lib/kref.c:34

After debugging uss720 driver i discovered that the completion callback was called before usb_submit_urb returns.
The callback frees the request structure that is krefed on return by usb_submit_urb.
