staging: lirc: fix mismatch in mutex lock-unlock in imon_probe
If kzalloc failed for allocation of context, goto alloc_status_switch
leads to unlock of unacquired driver_lock. The patch moves
mutex_lock(&driver_lock) before allocation of context.
Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
