    firewire: add a client_list_lock · cf417e54
    Jay Fenlason authored
    This adds a client_list_lock, which only protects the device's
    client_list, so that future versions of the driver can call code that
    takes the card->lock while holding the client_list_lock.  Adding this
    lock is much simpler than adding __ versions of all the functions that
    the future version may need.  The one ordering issue is to make sure
    code never takes the client_list_lock with card->lock held.  Since
    client_list_lock is only used in three places, that isn't hard.

    Update fill_bus_reset_event() accordingly.  Include linux/spinlock.h.
