[PATCH] ASoC: mchp-spdiftx: Fix a deadlock with the interrupt handler

[Ginger Li]

mchp_spdiftx_interrupt() is a hardirq handler and takes ctrl->lock to
serialize the user data and channel status updates, while
mchp_spdiftx_trigger() takes the same lock with spin_lock() from process
context.

Interrupts stay enabled while the lock is held in mchp_spdiftx_trigger(), so
if an SPDIFTX interrupt is delivered on the CPU that is inside that critical
section, the hardirq handler spins on a lock that the interrupted code is
holding and can never release.

Take ctrl->lock with spin_lock_irqsave() in mchp_spdiftx_trigger(), like the
other process context users of this lock in the driver already do.
