Subject: [PATCH] fsi:fsi-sbefifo: Fix possible concurrency use-after-free bugs in sbefifo_user_release

In drivers/fsi/fsi-sbefifo.c, the functions sbefifo_user_release(), 
sbefifo_user_read() and sbefifo_user_write() may be concurrently executed.

sbefifo_user_release()
  sbefifo_release_command()
    vfree(user->pending_cmd);

sbefifo_user_read()
  mutex_lock();
  rc = __sbefifo_submit(sbefifo, user->pending_cmd, ...);

sbefifo_user_write()
  mutex_lock();
  user->pending_cmd = user->cmd_page;
  user->pending_cmd = vmalloc(len);

Thus, possible concurrency use-after-free bugs may occur in
sbefifo_user_release().

To fix these bugs, the calls to mutex_lock() and mutex_unlock() are
added in sbefifo_user_release().
