When a request is made, the card presence is checked and the request is
queued. These two parts must be atomic with respect to card removal, or
a card removal could be handled in between, and the new request wouldn't
get cancelled until another card was inserted. Therefore move the
spinlock protection from dw_mci_queue_request() up into dw_mci_request()
to cover the presence check.

Note that the test_bit() used for the presence check isn't atomic
itself, so should have been protected by a spinlock anyway.
