ALSA: Make control API taking controls_rwsem consistently

A few ALSA control API helpers like snd_ctl_rename(), snd_ctl_remove()
and snd_ctl_find_*() suppose the callers taking card->controls_rwsem.
But it's error-prone and fragile.  This patch set tries to change
those API functions to take the card->controls>rwsem internally by
themselves, so that the drivers don't need to take care of lockings.

After applying this patch set, only a couple of places still touch
card->controls_rwsem (which are OK-ish as they need for traversing the
control linked list).
