firewire: add a client_list_lock

This adds a client_list_lock, which only protects the device's
client_list, so that future versions of the driver can call code that
takes the card->lock while holding the client_list_lock.  Adding this
lock is much simpler than adding __ versions of all the functions that
the future version may need.  The one ordering issue is to make sure
code never takes the client_list_lock with card->lock held.  Since
client_list_lock is only used in three places, that isn't hard.

Update fill_bus_reset_event() accordingly.  Include linux/spinlock.h.
