commit 40cab6e8 upstream. OSS PCM stream management isn't modal but it allows ioctls issued at any time for changing the parameters. In the previous hardening patch ("ALSA: pcm: Avoid potential races between OSS ioctls and read/write"), we covered these races and prevent the corruption by protecting the concurrent accesses via params_lock mutex. However, this means that some ioctls that try to change the stream parameter (e.g. channels or format) would be blocked until the read/write finishes, and it may take really long. Basically changing the parameter while reading/writing is an invalid operation, hence it's even more user-friendly from the API POV if it returns -EBUSY in such a situation. This patch adds such checks in the relevant ioctls with the addition of read/write access refcount.
