stm class: Fix link list locking
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826212 [ Upstream commit c74f7e82 ] Currently, the list of stm_sources linked to an stm device is protected by a spinlock, which also means that sources' .unlink() method is called under this spinlock. However, this method may (and does) sleep, which means trouble. This patch slightly reworks locking around stm::link_list so that bits that might_sleep() are called with a mutex held instead. Modification of this list requires both mutex and spinlock to be held, while looking at the list can be done under either mutex or spinlock.
