ALSA: Fix double locking of card list in snd_card_register()

Browse source 
The introduction of snd_card_set_id() added a lock on the card list
to the old choose_default_id() function when using it to implement
the new API call. This lock is needed to allow us to walk the list
and check to see if our new name is a duplicate. Unfortunately this
causes a lockup when called from snd_card_register() (in cases
where no ID is supplied for the card) since the card list is already
locked there.

Fix this fairly hideously by factoring out the implementation and
using a flag to indicate if the lock should be held. A better fix
would probably be to refactor snd_card_register() to move the
_set_id() outside the locking region but I can't immediately see
anything I can convince myself is safe.
