[media] media: saa7146: don't use mutex_lock_interruptible() in device_release()

Browse Source 
Use uninterruptible mutex_lock in the release() file op to make sure all
resources are properly freed when a process is being terminated. Returning
-ERESTARTSYS has no effect for a terminating process and this may cause driver
resources not to be released.
This was found using the following semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):
<spml>
@r@
identifier fops;
identifier release_func;
@@
static const struct v4l2_file_operations fops = {
.release = release_func
};
@depends on r@
identifier r.release_func;
expression E;
@@
static int release_func(...)
{
...
- if (mutex_lock_interruptible(E)) return -ERESTARTSYS;
+ mutex_lock(E);
...
}
</spml>
