The event handler in the virmidi sequencer code takes a read-lock for the linked list traverse, while it's calling snd_seq_dump_var_event() in the loop. The latter function may expand the user-space data depending on the event type. It eventually invokes copy_from_user(), which might be a potential dead-lock. The sequencer core guarantees that the user-space data is passed only with atomic=0 argument, but snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event() ignores it and always takes read-lock(). For avoiding the problem above, this patch introduces rwsem for non-atomic case, while keeping rwlock for atomic case. Also while we're at it: the superfluous irq flags is dropped in snd_virmidi_input_open().
