Eric W. Biederman 59b015133c Input: serio - fix potential deadlock when unbinding drivers
sysfs_remove_group() waits for sysfs attributes to be removed, therefore
we do not need to worry about driver-specific attributes being accessed
after driver has been detached from the device. In fact, attempts to take
serio->drv_mutex in attribute methods may lead to the following deadlock:

                                          sysfs_read_file()
                                            fill_read_buffer()
                                              sysfs_get_active_two()
                                                psmouse_attr_show_helper()
                                                  serio_pin_driver()
serio_disconnect_driver()
  mutex_lock(&serio->drv_mutex);
                                <-------->        mutex_lock(&serio_drv_mutex);
    psmouse_disconnect()
      sysfs_remove_group(... psmouse_attr_group);
        ....
        sysfs_deactivate();
          wait_for_completion();

Fix this by removing calls to serio_[un]pin_driver() and functions themselves
and using driver-private mutexes to serialize access to attribute's set()
methods that may change device state.
