Subject: [PATCH] firmware: stratix10-svc: Add mutex in stratix10 memory
management
Add mutex lock to stratix10_svc_allocate_memory and
stratix10_svc_free_memory for thread safety. This prevents race
conditions and ensures proper synchronization during memory operations.
This is required for parallel communication with the Stratix10 service
channel.
Fixes: 7ca5ce896524f ("firmware: add Intel Stratix10 service layer driver")
