That is probably what triggered the failure detected by syzbot, but I
don't think we've ever had a guarantee that owner is NULL in that
code.

Looking at the uvc driver [1], it doesn't seem to need any special
locking there (after all the vb2 code acquires them).  (It also
doesn't have the custom clean-up code that the usbtv driver has in
usbtv_stop(), but that's another story). So maybe all we need to fix
it is removing the mutex_lock/unlock() calls?
