3.16.7-ckt25 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 2d1b5c08366acd46c35a2e9aba5d650cb5bf5c19 upstream.

The virmidi driver has an open race at closing its assigned rawmidi
device, and this may lead to use-after-free in
snd_seq_deliver_single_event().

Plug the hole by properly protecting the linked list deletion and
calling in the right order in snd_virmidi_input_close().
