My bad, it has to be checked before mutex_lock.
There is one another place doing the same mistake.

The fix patch is below.

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Fix mutex unbalance in OSS emulation ioctls

The previous fix 40cab6e88cb0 ("ALSA: pcm: Return -EBUSY for OSS
ioctls changing busy streams") introduced some mutex unbalance, the
check of runtime->oss.rw_ref was inserted in a wrong place after the
mutex lock although it should have been done before the mutex lock.
Fix those spots.
