[PATCH] ALSA: firewire: Clean up a locking issue in copy_resp_to_buf()
The spin_lock/unlock_irq() functions cannot be nested. The problem is that presumably we would want the IRQs to be re-enabled on the second call the spin_unlock_irq() but instead it will be enabled at the first call so IRQs will be enabled earlier than expected.
In this situation the copy_resp_to_buf() function is only called from one function and it is called with IRQs disabled. We can just use the regular spin_lock/unlock() functions.

Indeed. It's bad to use the two pairs by nesting. Thanks for the patch and your care.
