* commit 'fbd6c97f9ca858140df16dd07200ea0d4bdc1a83':
lavu: fix memory leaks by using a mutex instead of atomics
Conflicts:
libavutil/buffer.c
The atomics code is left in place as a fallback for synchronization in the
absence of p/w32 threads. Our ABI did not requires applications to
only use threads (and matching ones) to what libavutil was build with
Our code also was not affected by the leak this change fixes, though
no question the atomics based implementation is not pretty at all.
First and foremost the code must work, being pretty comes after that.
If this causes problems, for example when libavutil is used by multiple
applications each using a different kind of threading system then the
default possibly has to be changed to the uglier atomics.

The buffer pool has to atomically add and remove entries from the linked
list of available buffers. This was done by removing the entire list
with a CAS operation, working on it, and then setting it back again
(using a retry-loop in case another thread was doing the same thing).
This could effectively cause memory leaks: while a thread was working on
the buffer list, other threads would allocate new buffers, increasing
the pool's total size. There was no real leak, but since these extra
buffers were not needed, but not free'd either (except when the buffer
pool was destroyed), this had the same effects as a real leak. For some
reason, growth was exponential, and could easily kill the process due
to OOM in real-world uses.
Fix this by using a mutex to protect the list operations. The fancy
way atomics remove the whole list to work on it is not needed anymore,
which also avoids the situation which was causing the leak.

This race will always happen sooner or later in a multi-threaded
environment and it will over time lead to OOM.
This fix works by spinning, there are other ways by which this
can be fixed, like simply detecting the issue after it happened
and freeing the over-allocated memory or simply using a mutex.
