ALSA: seq: Don't handle loop timeout at snd_seq_pool_done()
commit 37a7ea4a upstream. snd_seq_pool_done() syncs with closing of all opened threads, but it aborts the wait loop with a timeout, and proceeds to the release resource even if not all threads have been closed. The timeout was 5 seconds, and if you run a crazy stuff, it can exceed easily, and may result in the access of the invalid memory address -- this is what syzkaller detected in a bug report. As a fix, let the code graduate from naiveness, simply remove the loop timeout.
