Alsa used to kmalloc one file->f_op per file per disconnecting snd_card.
This led to oopses sometimes when file->f_op was freed before __fput()
finished.
Patch adds a virtual device for disconnect: VDD.
VDD consists of:
LIST_HEAD(shutdown_files)
protected by DEFINE_SPINLOCK(shutdown_mutex)
static struct file_operations snd_shutdown_f_ops
and functions assigned to it
Additions to struct snd_monitor_file
to specify if instance is hidden by VDD or not.
A VDD's instance is
created in snd_card_disconnect() under the card->files_lock.
cleaned up in snd_card_file_remove() under the card->files_lock.
