Takes rwsem lock inside snd_ctl_elem_read instead of snd_ctl_elem_read_user
like it was done for write in commit 1fa4445f9adf1 ("ALSA: control - introduce
snd_ctl_notify_one() helper"). Doing this way we are also fixing the following
locking issue happening in the compat path which can be easily triggered and
turned into an use-after-free.

64-bits:
snd_ctl_ioctl
  snd_ctl_elem_read_user
    [takes controls_rwsem]
    snd_ctl_elem_read [lock properly held, all good]
    [drops controls_rwsem]

32-bits:
snd_ctl_ioctl_compat
  snd_ctl_elem_write_read_compat
    ctl_elem_write_read
      snd_ctl_elem_read [missing lock, not good]

CVE-2023-0266 was assigned for this issue.
