ALSA: Get rid of card power_lock Currently we're taking power_lock at each card component for assuring the power-up sequence, but it doesn't help anything in the implementation at the moment: it just serializes unnecessarily the callers, but it doesn't protect about the power state change itself. It used to have some usefulness in the early days where we managed the PM manually. But now the suspend/resume core procedure is beyond our hands, and power_lock lost its meaning. This patch drops the power_lock from allover the places. There shouldn't be any issues by this change, as it's no helper regarding the power state change. Rather we'll get better performance by removing the serialization; which is the only slight concern of any behavior change, but it can't be a showstopper, after all.
