[PATCH] mailbox: qcom-ipcc: Guard against NULL con_priv in send_data()

[Anup Vishwakarma <anup.vishwakarma@oss.qualcomm.com>]

qcom_ipcc_mbox_shutdown() clears chan->con_priv with no locking.
qcom_ipcc_mbox_send_data() dereferences the same field without
checking for NULL first, so a send racing a concurrent shutdown can
crash:

  mchan = chan->con_priv;
  ...
  hwirq = qcom_ipcc_get_hwirq(mchan->client_id, mchan->signal_id);

Add the same NULL guard mbox_send_message() already uses for
chan->cl, and bail out before dereferencing a cleared con_priv.

To close the remaining race where send_data() reads con_priv a moment
before a concurrent shutdown clears it, acquire the spinlock in
qcom_ipcc_mbox_shutdown() using the modern guard(spinlock_irqsave)
primitive before setting con_priv to NULL.
