[ Note: this is a fix that works around the bug equivalently as the
  two upstream commits:
   1fa4445f9adf ("ALSA: control - introduce snd_ctl_notify_one() helper")
   56b88b50565c ("ALSA: pcm: Move rwsem lock inside snd_ctl_elem_read to prevent UAF")
  but in a simpler way to fit with older stable trees -- tiwai ]

Add missing locking in ctl_elem_read_user/ctl_elem_write_user which can be
easily triggered and turned into an use-after-free.

Example code paths with SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_READ:

64-bits:
snd_ctl_ioctl
  snd_ctl_elem_read_user
    [takes controls_rwsem]
    snd_ctl_elem_read [lock properly held, all good]
    [drops controls_rwsem]

32-bits (compat):
snd_ctl_ioctl_compat
  snd_ctl_elem_write_read_compat
    ctl_elem_write_read
      snd_ctl_elem_read [missing lock, not good]

CVE-2023-0266 was assigned for this issue.

Greg, this is a patch for the last ALSA PCM UCM fix for the older
stable trees.  Please take this to 5.10.y and older stable trees.
Thanks!
