ALSA: seq: Protect in-kernel ioctl calls with mutex
ALSA OSS sequencer calls the ioctl function indirectly via
snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl(). While we already applied the protection
against races between the normal ioctls and writes via the client's
ioctl_mutex, this code path was left untouched. And this seems to be
the cause of still remaining some rare UAF as spontaneously triggered
by syzkaller.
For the sake of robustness, wrap the ioctl_mutex also for the call via
snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl(), too.
