[QUEUED v20160408 16/18] intel_th: Hold output driver module reference while capture is active

From: Alexander Shishkin
Date: Fri Apr 08 2016 - 10:58:10 EST


Right now it's possible to unload the output subdevice's driver while
the capture to this output is active. Prevent this by holding the
output driver's module reference.
