Commit 62d5ae4cafb7 ("ASoC: max98090: save and restore SHDN when changing
sensitive registers") extended the code for handling many controls by
adding a custom put function to them. That new custom put function
properly handles relations between codec's hardware registers. However
they used card->dapm_mutex to properly serialize those operations. This
in turn triggers a lockdep warning about possible circular dependency.
Fix this by introducing a separate mutex only for serializing the SHDN
hardware register related operations.

This fixes the following lockdep warning observed on Exynos4412-based
Odroid U3 board:
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.5.0-rc5-next-20200107 #166 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
alsactl/1104 is trying to acquire lock:
ed0d50f4 (&card->dapm_mutex){+.+.}, at: max98090_shdn_save+0x1c/0x28

but task is already holding lock:
edb4b49c (&card->controls_rwsem){++++}, at: snd_ctl_ioctl+0xcc/0xbb8

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
