[media] s5p-fimc: Don't use mutex_lock_interruptible() in device rele…

Use uninterruptible mutex_lock in the release() file op to make
sure all resources are properly freed when a process is being
terminated. Returning -ERESTARTSYS has no effect for a terminating
process and this caused driver resources not to be released. Not
releasing the buffer queue also prevented other drivers to free
memory, e.g. in MMAP -> USERPTR scenario.
This patch is required for stable kernels v3.6+.
