ALSA: emu10k1: don't deadlock in proc-functions
commit 91bf0c2d upstream. The functions snd_emu10k1_proc_spdif_read and snd_emu1010_fpga_read acquire the emu_lock before accessing the FPGA. The function used to access the FPGA (snd_emu1010_fpga_read) also tries to take the emu_lock which causes a deadlock. Remove the outer locking in the proc-functions (guarding only the already safe fpga read) to prevent this deadlock. [removed superfluous flags variables too -- tiwai] Signed-off-by: Michael Gernoth <michael@gernoth.net> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com>
