Mainak Sen d138f73ffb gpu: host1x: Fix race in syncpt alloc/free
[ Upstream commit c7d393267c ]

Fix race condition between host1x_syncpt_alloc()
and host1x_syncpt_put() by using kref_put_mutex()
instead of kref_put() + manual mutex locking.

This ensures no thread can acquire the
syncpt_mutex after the refcount drops to zero
but before syncpt_release acquires it.
This prevents races where syncpoints could
be allocated while still being cleaned up
from a previous release.

Remove explicit mutex locking in syncpt_release
as kref_put_mutex() handles this atomically.
