ALSA: control: Take power_ref lock primarily

The code path for kcontrol accesses have often nested locks of both
card's controls_rwsem and power_ref, and applies in that order.
However, what could take much longer is the latter, power_ref; it
waits for the power state of the device, and it pretty much depends on
the user's action.

This patch swaps the locking order of those locks to a more natural
way, namely, power_ref -> controls_rwsem, in order to shorten the time
of possible nested locks.  For consistency, power_ref is taken always
in the top-level caller side (that is, *_user() functions and the
ioctl handler itself).
