Subject: [PATCH V3 1/2] rpmsg: glink: Add lock to avoid race when rpmsg device is released

When remote host goes down glink char device channel is freed and
associated rpdev is destroyed through rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_destroy(),
At the same time user space apps can still try to open/poll rpmsg
char device which will result in calling rpmsg_create_ept()/rpmsg_poll().
These functions will try to reference rpdev which has already been freed
through rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_destroy().

File operation functions and device removal function must be protected
with lock. This patch adds existing ept lock in remove function as well.

Subject: [PATCH V3 2/2] rpmsg: glink: Add lock to rpmsg_ctrldev_remove

Call to rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() and rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() must be synchronized.
In present code rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() is not protected with lock, therefore
new char device creation can succeed through rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() call. At the
same time call to rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() funtion for ctrl device removal will
free associated rpdev device. As char device creation already succeeded, user
space is free to issue open() call which maps to rpmsg_create_ept() in kernel.
rpmsg_create_ept() function tries to reference rpdev which has already been
freed through rpmsg_ctrldev_remove(). Issue is predominantly seen in aggressive
reboot tests where rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() and rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() can race with
each other.

Adding lock in rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() avoids any new char device creation
throught rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() while remove call is already in progress.

The commit subject should start with "rpmsg: char:"
no glink driver update...

Arnaud
