staging: comedi: use attach_lock semaphore during attach and detach
Acquire the `attach_lock` semaphore in the `struct comedi_device` while modifying the `attached` flag. This is a "write" acquire. Note that the main mutex in the `struct comedi_device` is also held at this time. Tasks wishing to check the device is attached will need to either acquire the main mutex, or "read" acquire the `attach_lock` semaphore, or both in that order.
