The operation should serialize in this case (there's limit of 10 seconds which should be enough to finish the initialization). The state_lock() function should return -EBUSY when the file is locked (and I'm fine to change the behaviour from 'init' to 'skip' for this lock state). It seems that -EEXIST is returned when the lock file exists, but the open(file, O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0644) caller has not enough priviledges to access this file when another user owns the file. But alsactl from /lib/udev/rules.d/90-alsa-restore.rules and /lib/systemd/system/alsa-restore.service should be run as root, right?
