ALSA: hrtimer: Fix stall by hrtimer_cancel()

commit 2ba1fe7a upstream.

hrtimer_cancel() waits for the completion from the callback, thus it
must not be called inside the callback itself.  This was already a
problem in the past with ALSA hrtimer driver, and the early commit
[fcfdebe7: ALSA: hrtimer - Fix lock-up] tried to address it.

However, the previous fix is still insufficient: it may still cause a
lockup when the ALSA timer instance reprograms itself in its callback.
Then it invokes the start function even in snd_timer_interrupt() that
is called in hrtimer callback itself, results in a CPU stall.  This is
no hypothetical problem but actually triggered by syzkaller fuzzer.

This patch tries to fix the issue again.  Now we call
hrtimer_try_to_cancel() at both start and stop functions so that it
won't fall into a deadlock, yet giving some chance to cancel the queue
if the functions have been called outside the callback.  The proper
hrtimer_cancel() is called in anyway at closing, so this should be
enough.
