ALSA: pcm: prevent UAF in snd_pcm_info
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1745047 commit 362bca57 upstream. When the device descriptor is closed, the `substream->runtime` pointer is freed. But another thread may be in the ioctl handler, case SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_INFO. This case calls snd_pcm_info_user() which calls snd_pcm_info() which accesses the now freed `substream->runtime`.
