Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/6] pci: Add a mutex to pci_dev to protect device state

This adds a pci_dev mutex which will be used to fix a number
of races related to the various state bits maintained in
that structure.

We call it "state_lock" with similarly named accessors to avoid
confusion with the pci_dev_lock() which uses the device_lock().

This is a low level mutex meant to protect the mapping between
the state fields and the hardware state, for example enabling
disabling, setting/clearing bus master etc...

These operations can happen while the device_lock() is already
held (but don't have to) so a separate mutex is preferable.
