Subject: [PATCH] sound: use the right lock in snd_ctl_dev_disconnect

Hi,

I never saw any follow-up on this, so here's the patch (in case it was
simply forgotten). Please ignore if it has already been applied to some
development tree. Compile-tested only.

&card->ctl_files is protected by &card->ctl_files_rwlock, not
&card->controls_rwsem. Fix it.
