mainlining shenanigans

ALSA control core handles ELEM_READ/ELEM_WRITE requests within lock
acquisition of a counting semaphore. The lock is acquired in helper
functions in the end of call path before calling implementations of each
driver.
ioctl(2) with SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_READ
...
->snd_ctl_ioctl()
->snd_ctl_elem_read_user()
->snd_ctl_elem_read()
->down_read(controls_rwsem)
->snd_ctl_find_id()
->struct snd_kcontrol.get()
->up_read(controls_rwsem)
ioctl(2) with SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_WRITE
...
->snd_ctl_ioctl()
->snd_ctl_elem_write_user()
->snd_ctl_elem_write()
->down_read(controls_rwsem)
->snd_ctl_find_id()
->struct snd_kcontrol.put()
->up_read(controls_rwsem)
This commit moves the lock acquisition to middle of the call graph to
simplify the helper functions. As a result:

...

->snd_ctl_elem_read_user()
->down_read(controls_rwsem)
->snd_ctl_elem_read()
->snd_ctl_find_id()
->struct snd_kcontrol.get()
->up_read(controls_rwsem)
ioctl(2) with SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_WRITE
...

->down_read(controls_rwsem)
->snd_ctl_elem_write()
->snd_ctl_find_id()
->struct snd_kcontrol.put()
->up_read(controls_rwsem)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
