The PCM and rawmidi open callbacks have a lock against card->controls_list
but it takes a wrong one, card->controls_rwsem, instead of a right one
card->ctl_files_rwlock.  This patch fixes them.

This change also fixes automatically the potential deadlocks due to
mm->mmap_sem in munmap and copy_from/to_user, reported by Sitsofe
Wheeler:

  A: snd_ctl_elem_user_tlv(): card->controls_rwsem => mm->mmap_sem
  B: snd_pcm_open(): card->open_mutex => card->controls_rwsem
  C: munmap: mm->mmap_sem => snd_pcm_release(): card->open_mutex

The patch breaks the chain.
