media: dvb_frontend: fix locking issues at dvb_frontend_get_event()
As warned by smatch:
drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.c:314 dvb_frontend_get_event() warn: inconsistent returns 'sem:&fepriv->sem'.
Locked on: line 288
line 295
line 306
line 314
Unlocked on: line 303
The lock implementation for get event is wrong, as, if an
interrupt occurs, down_interruptible() will fail, and the
routine will call up() twice when userspace calls the ioctl
again.
The bad code is there since when Linux migrated to git, in
2005.
