The pcm_mutex is used to prevent concurrent execution of snd_pcm_ops
callbacks. This works fine most of the cases but it can not handle setups
when the same DAI is used by different rtd, for example:
pcm3168a have two DAIs: one for Playback and one for Capture.
If the codec is connected to a single CPU DAI we need to have two dai_link
to support both playback and capture.
In this case the snd_pcm_ops callbacks can be executed in parallel causing
unexpected races in DAI drivers.
By moving the pcm_mutex up to card level this can be solved
while - hopefully - not breaking other setups.
