ALSA: seq: Avoid concurrent access to queue flags
The queue flags are represented in bit fields and the concurrent access may result in unexpected results. Although the current code should be mostly OK as it's only reading a field while writing other fields as KCSAN reported, it's safer to cover both with a proper spinlock protection. This patch fixes the possible concurrent read by protecting with q->owner_lock. Also the queue owner field is protected as well since it's the field to be protected by the lock itself.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
