[media] media: vb2: Fix potential deadlock in vb2_prepare_buffer
Commit b037c0fde22b1d3cd0b3c3717d28e54619fc1592 ("media: vb2: fix potential deadlock in mmap vs. get_userptr handling") fixes an AB-BA deadlock related to the mmap_sem and driver locks. The same deadlock can occur in vb2_prepare_buffer(), fix it the same way.
