staging: comedi: fix a race between do_cmd_ioctl() and read/write

Browse Source 
`do_cmd_ioctl()` is called with the comedi device's mutex locked to
process the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl to set up comedi's asynchronous command
handling on a comedi subdevice.  `comedi_read()` and `comedi_write()`
are the `read` and `write` handlers for the comedi device, but do not
lock the mutex (for performance reasons, as some things can hold the
mutex for quite a long time).

There is a race condition if `comedi_read()` or `comedi_write()` is
running at the same time and for the same file object and comedi
subdevice as `do_cmd_ioctl()`.  `do_cmd_ioctl()` sets the subdevice's
`busy` pointer to the file object way before it sets the `SRF_RUNNING` flag
in the subdevice's `runflags` member.  `comedi_read() and
`comedi_write()` check the subdevice's `busy` pointer is pointing to the
current file object, then if the `SRF_RUNNING` flag is not set, will call
`do_become_nonbusy()` to shut down the asyncronous command.  Bad things
can happen if the asynchronous command is being shutdown and set up at
the same time.

To prevent the race, don't set the `busy` pointer until
after the `SRF_RUNNING` flag has been set.  Also, make sure the mutex is
held in `comedi_read()` and `comedi_write()` while calling
`do_become_nonbusy()` in order to avoid moving the race condition to a
point within that function.

Change some error handling `goto cleanup` statements in `do_cmd_ioctl()`
to simple `return -ERRFOO` statements as a result of changing when the
`busy` pointer is set.
