fastrpc_req_munmap involves two steps to unmap memory, first to locates a matching fastrpc buf in the list and second is to send request to DSP to unmap. There is a potential race condition between two operations which can lead to user-after-free scenario. Lock unmap request to avoid use-after-free.
