ALSA: seq: Don't allow resizing pool in use
This is a fix for a (sort of) fallout in the recent commit
d15d662e89fc ("ALSA: seq: Fix racy pool initializations") for
CVE-2018-1000004.
As the pool resize deletes the existing cells, it may lead to a race
when another thread is writing concurrently, eventually resulting a
UAF.
A simple workaround is not to allow the pool resizing when the pool is
in use. It's an invalid behavior in anyway.
