Opening cx88-blackbird will deadlock. Various other uses of the sub-device and driver lists appear to be subject to race conditions. For example: various functions access drvlist without a relevant lock held, which will race against removal of drivers. Let's start with that --- clean up by consistently protecting dev->drvlist with dev->core->lock, noting driver functions that require the device lock to be held or not to be held. There are still some races --- e.g., cx8802_blackbird_remove can run between the time the blackbird driver is acquired and the time it is used in mpeg_release, and there's a similar race in cx88_dvb_bus_ctrl. The only goal is to make the semantics clearer in preparation for more changes. Later patches will address the remaining known races and the deadlock noticed by Andi. Based on a patch by Ben Hutchings .
