Subject: ALSA: line6: Give up on the lock while URBs are released.

From: Andrej Krutak <dev@andree.sk>

commit adc8a43a6d6688272ebffa81789fa857e603dec6 upstream.

Done, because line6_stream_stop() locks and calls line6_unlink_audio_urbs(),
which in turn invokes audio_out_callback(), which tries to lock 2nd time.

Fixes:

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
4.4.15+ #15 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------
mplayer/3591 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&(&line6pcm->out.lock)->rlock){-.-...}, at: [<bfa27655>] audio_out_callback+0x70/0x110 [snd_usb_line6]

but task is already holding lock:
 (&(&line6pcm->out.lock)->rlock){-.-...}, at: [<bfa26aad>] line6_stream_stop+0x24/0x5c [snd_usb_line6]

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(&(&line6pcm->out.lock)->rlock);
  lock(&(&line6pcm->out.lock)->rlock);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

3 locks held by mplayer/3591:
 #0:  (snd_pcm_link_rwlock){.-.-..}, at: [<bf8d49a7>] snd_pcm_stream_lock+0x1e/0x40 [snd_pcm]
