3.16.78-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 75545304eba6a3d282f923b96a466dc25a81e359 upstream. The input pool of a client might be deleted via the resize ioctl, the the access to it should be covered by the proper locks. Currently the only missing place is the call in snd_seq_ioctl_get_client_pool(), and this patch papers over it.
