V4L/DVB (6291): Fix: avoid oops on some SMP machines

Browse Source 
This workaround fix a bug that happens on some SMP machines. On those machines,
videobuf_iolock is called too soon, before file .mmap handler. This patch calls
the scheduler before iolocking, allowing it to properly call the pending mmap.

On some cases, the mmap_mapper() is called only after scheduling.
However, this way is just too dirty! Better to wait for some event.
