The event subscriptions are added to the subscribed event list while
holding a spinlock, but that lock is subsequently released while still
accessing the subscription object. This makes it possible to unsubscribe
the event --- and freeing the subscription object's memory --- while
the subscription object is simultaneously accessed.
Prevent this by adding a mutex to serialise the event subscription and
unsubscription. This also gives a guarantee to the callback ops that the
add op has returned before the del op is called.
This change also results in making the elems field less special:
subscriptions are only added to the event list once they are fully
initialised.

since v1:
- Call the mutex field subscribe_lock instead.
- Move the field that is now subscribe_lock above the subscribed field the
write access to which it serialises.
- Improve documentation of the subscribe_lock field.
since v2:
- Acquire spinlock for the duration of list_add() in v4l2_event_subscribe().
- Remove a redundant comment in the same place.
