There was a race condition where during cleanup/release operation
on-going streaming would cause a kernel panic because the hardware
module was disabled prematurely with IRQ still pending.

Fixes: 417d2e507edc ("[media] media: platform: add VPFE capture driver support for AM437X")
Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.0+

Changes since v2:
- fix the stable commit reference syntax

Close, but no cigar.

The assignment to fh_singular should be moved inside the mutex. Right now
there still is a race condition between setting fh_singular and taking
the lock.
