      ALSA: emux: Fix mutex deadlock in OSS emulation · 1c94e65c
      Takashi Iwai authored
      The OSS emulation in synth-emux helper has a potential AB/BA deadlock
      at the simultaneous closing and opening:
      
        close ->
          snd_seq_release() ->
            sne_seq_free_client() ->
              snd_seq_delete_all_ports(): takes client->ports_mutex ->
      	  port_delete() ->
      	    snd_emux_unuse(): takes emux->register_mutex
      
        open ->
          snd_seq_oss_open() ->
            snd_emux_open_seq_oss(): takes emux->register_mutex ->
              snd_seq_event_port_attach() ->
      	  snd_seq_create_port(): takes client->ports_mutex
      
      This patch addresses the deadlock by reducing the rance taking
      emux->register_mutex in snd_emux_open_seq_oss().  The lock is needed
      for the refcount handling, so move it locally.  The calls in
      emux_seq.c are already with the mutex, thus they are replaced with the
      version without mutex lock/unlock.
