ALSA: rawmidi: Fix racy buffer resize under concurrent accesses
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881356 commit c1f6e3c8 upstream. The rawmidi core allows user to resize the runtime buffer via ioctl, and this may lead to UAF when performed during concurrent reads or writes: the read/write functions unlock the runtime lock temporarily during copying form/to user-space, and that's the race window. This patch fixes the hole by introducing a reference counter for the runtime buffer read/write access and returns -EBUSY error when the resize is performed concurrently against read/write. Note that the ref count field is a simple integer instead of refcount_t here, since the all contexts accessing the buffer is basically protected with a spinlock, hence we need no expensive atomic ops. Also, note that this busy check is needed only against read / write functions, and not in receive/transmit callbacks; the race can happen only at the spinlock hole mentioned in the above, while the whole function is protected for receive / transmit callbacks.
