[BUG] IB/hfi1: might sleep under spinlock in hfi1_ioctl()

Hello,

hfi1_ioctl() contains many calls to might sleep functions with
dd->hfi1_snoop.snoop_lock spinlock held (for example, access_ok,
copy_from_user, kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL), etc.).

Should dd->hfi1_snoop.snoop_lock be acquired just before updating state?
