[PATCH 5.15.y] ALSA: core: Fix potential data race at fasync handling

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

[ Upstream commit 8146cd333d235ed32d48bb803fdf743472d7c783 ]

In snd_fasync_work_fn(), which is the offload work for traversing and
processing the pending fasync list, the call of kill_fasync() is done
outside the snd_fasync_lock for avoiding deadlocks.  The problem is
that its the references of fasync->on, fasync->signal and fasync->poll
are done there also outside the lock.  Since these may be modified by
snd_kill_fasync() call concurrently from other process, inconsistent
values might be passed to kill_fasync().  Although there shouldn't be
critical UAF, it's still better to be addressed.

This patch moves the kill_fasync() argument evaluations inside the
snd_fasync_lock for avoiding the data races above.  The handling in
fasync->on flag is optimized in the loop to skip directly.

Also, for more clarity, snd_fasync_free() takes the lock and unlink
the pending entry more directly instead of clearing fasync->on flag.
