To support userspace audio daemons like Virtual OSS, /dev/sndstat is
made writeable by the root user. Userspace audio daemons can add or
update an entry in /dev/sndstat by doing a single system write call to
any /dev/sndstat file descriptor handle. When the audio daemon closes the
file handle or is killed the entry disappears.

While at it, cleanup the sound status code a bit:
- keep the device list sorted to avoid sorting the list every time a
  /dev/sndstat read request is made.
- factor out locking into a pair of locking macros.
- use the sound status lock to protect all per file handle states,
  when generating the output for /dev/sndstat and when removing or
  adding sound status devices. This way sndstat_acquire() and
  sndstat_release() become superfluous and can be removed.
