Subject: [PATCH 4.18 286/350] Revert "media: dvbsky: use just one mutex for serializing device R/W ops"

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@...nel.org>

commit 9afc82194de9a1ce298f0d77d7d779d585bf962c upstream.

As pointed at:
	https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199323

This patch causes a bad effect on RPi. I suspect that the root
cause is at the USB out of tree RPi driver, with uses high priority
interrupts instead of normal ones. Anyway, as this patch
is mostly a cleanup, better to revert it.

This reverts commit 7d95fb746c4eece67308f1642a666ea1ebdbd2cc.
