ALSA: timer: Fix race at concurrent reads
commit 4dff5c7b upstream. snd_timer_user_read() has a potential race among parallel reads, as qhead and qused are updated outside the critical section due to copy_to_user() calls. Move them into the critical section, and also sanitize the relevant code a bit.
