[PATCH] staging: unisys: visorbus: visorchannel: Refactor locking code to be statically deterministic.

[Cathal Mullaney]

This patch makes locking in visorchannel_signalempty statically deterministic.
As a result this patch fixes the sparse warning:
Context imbalance in 'visorchannel_signalempty' - different lock contexts for basic block.

The logic of the locking code doesn't change but the layout of the original code is "frowned upon"
according to mails on sparse context checking.
Refactoring removes the warning and makes the code more readable.
