In commit 9b9c8195f3f0 ("tty: n_gsm: fix UAF in gsm_cleanup_mux"), the UAF
problem is not completely fixed. There is a race condition in
gsm_cleanup_mux(), which caused this UAF.

The UAF problem is triggered by the following race:
task[5046]                     task[5054]
-----------------------        -----------------------
gsm_cleanup_mux();
dlci = gsm->dlci[0];
mutex_lock(&gsm->mutex);
                               gsm_cleanup_mux();
       dlci = gsm->dlci[0]; //Didn't take the lock
gsm_dlci_release(gsm->dlci[i]);
gsm->dlci[i] = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&gsm->mutex);
                               mutex_lock(&gsm->mutex);
       dlci->dead = true; //UAF

Fix it by assigning values after mutex_lock().
