[37/73] ALSA: usb-audio: fix oops due to cleanup race when disconnecting

2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 382225e62bdb8059b7f915b133426425516dd300 upstream.

When a USB audio device is disconnected, snd_usb_audio_disconnect()
kills all audio URBs. At the same time, the application, after being
notified of the disconnection, might close the device, in which case
ALSA calls the .hw_free callback, which should free the URBs too.

Commit de1b8b93a0ba "[ALSA] Fix hang-up at disconnection of usb-audio"
prevented snd_usb_hw_free() from freeing the URBs to avoid a hang that
resulted from this race, but this introduced another race because the
URB callbacks could now be executed after snd_usb_hw_free() has
returned, and try to access already freed data.

Fix the first race by introducing a mutex to serialize the disconnect
callback and all PCM callbacks that manage URBs (hw_free and hw_params).
