[media] vb2: fix vb2_thread_stop race conditions
The locking scheme inside the vb2 thread is unsafe when stopping the thread. In particular kthread_stop was called *after* internal data structures were cleaned up instead of doing that before. In addition, internal vb2 functions were called after threadio->stop was set to true and vb2_internal_streamoff was called. This is also not allowed. All this led to a variety of race conditions and kernel warnings and/or oopses. Fixed by moving the kthread_stop call up before the cleanup takes place, and by checking threadio->stop before calling internal vb2 queuing operations.
