CAPI: Rework application locking
Drop the application rw-lock in favour of RCU. This synchronizes
capi20_release against capi_ctr_handle_message which may dereference an
application from (soft-)IRQ context. Any other access to the application
list is now protected by the capi_controller_lock as well. This also
allows to safely inspect applications for /proc dumping by holding
capi_controller_lock.
At this chance, drop some useless release_in_progress checks where we
obtained the application pointer from the list (which becomes NULL on
release_in_progress).
