[Impact]
It was discovered that the DVB Core driver in the Linux kernel did not
properly handle locking events in certain situations. A local attacker
could use this to cause a denial of service (kernel deadlock).

[Backport]
Clean cherry-pick.

[Test]
Smoke tested against dvb-fe-tool.

[Potential Regression]
Expect minimal regression potential.
