[PATCH 2.6.32 41/55] ALSA: seq: Fix yet another races among ALSA timer accesses

[Willy Tarreau]

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 2cdc7b636d55cbcf42e1e6c8accd85e62d3e9ae8 upstream.

ALSA sequencer may open/close and control ALSA timer instance
dynamically either via sequencer events or direct ioctls.  These are
done mostly asynchronously, and it may call still some timer action
like snd_timer_start() while another is calling snd_timer_close().
Since the instance gets removed by snd_timer_close(), it may lead to
a use-after-free.

This patch tries to address such a race by protecting each
snd_timer_*() call via the existing spinlock and also by avoiding the
access to timer during close call.
