ALSA: core: Add async signal helpers

[ Upstream commit ef34a0ae7a2654bc9e58675e36898217fb2799d8 ]

Currently the call of kill_fasync() from an interrupt handler might
lead to potential spin deadlocks, as spotted by syzkaller.
Unfortunately, it's not so trivial to fix this lock chain as it's
involved with the tasklist_lock that is touched in allover places.

As a temporary workaround, this patch provides the way to defer the
async signal notification in a work.  The new helper functions,
snd_fasync_helper() and snd_kill_faync() are replacements for
fasync_helper() and kill_fasync(), respectively.  In addition,
snd_fasync_free() needs to be called at the destructor of the relevant
file object.
