Subject: [PATCH 3.16 42/63] ALSA: rawmidi: Change resized buffers atomically

3.16.58-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit 39675f7a7c7e7702f7d5341f1e0d01db746543a0 upstream.

The SNDRV_RAWMIDI_IOCTL_PARAMS ioctl may resize the buffers and the
current code is racy.  For example, the sequencer client may write to
buffer while it being resized.

As a simple workaround, let's switch to the resized buffer inside the
stream runtime lock.
