ALSA: seq: Fix yet another races among ALSA timer accesses
ALSA sequencer may open/close and control ALSA timer instance dynamically either via sequencer events or direct ioctls. These are done mostly asynchronously, and it may call still some timer action like snd_timer_start() while another is calling snd_timer_close(). Since the instance gets removed by snd_timer_close(), it may lead to a use-after-free. This patch tries to address such a race by protecting each snd_timer_*() call via the existing spinlock and also by avoiding the access to timer during close call.
