ALSA: hda: realtek: Fix race at concurrent COEF updates
commit b837a9f5ab3bdfab9233c9f98a6bef717673a3e5 upstream.
The COEF access is done with two steps: setting the index then read or
write the data. When multiple COEF accesses are performed
concurrently, the index and data might be paired unexpectedly.
In most cases, this isn't a big problem as the COEF setup is done at
the initialization, but some dynamic changes like the mute LED may hit
such a race.
For avoiding the racy COEF accesses, this patch introduces a new
mutex coef_mutex to alc_spec, and wrap the COEF accessing functions
with it.
