linux: Use a separate lock to serialize start/stop vs hotplug events
Using one lock for this is a bad idea, as we should not be holding any locks used by the hotplug thread when trying to stop otherwise the stop function may wait indefinetely in pthread_join, while the event-thread is waiting for the lock the caller of the stop function holds. Using 2 separate locks for this should fix this deadlock, which has been reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=985484 Many thanks to Chris Dickens for figuring out the cause of this deadlock!
