Input: fix locking in force-feedback core
The newly added event_lock spinlock in the input core disallows sleeping
and therefore using mutexes in event handlers. Convert force-feedback
core to rely on event_lock instead of mutex to protect slots allocated
for fore-feedback effects. The original mutex is still used to serialize
uploading and erasing of effects.
causes the following regression on m68k:
| linux/drivers/input/ff-core.c: In function 'input_ff_upload':
| linux/drivers/input/ff-core.c:172: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
| linux/drivers/input/ff-core.c: In function 'erase_effect':
| linux/drivers/input/ff-core.c:197: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
| linux/drivers/input/ff-core.c:204: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
| make[4]: *** [drivers/input/ff-core.o] Error 1
As the incomplete type is `struct task_struct', including <linux/sched.h> fixes
it.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
