[PATCH] staging: ion: always initialize the free list parameters

Currently we initialize the heap free_lock and free list size in
ion_heap_init_deferred_free, which is only called when the
ION_HEAP_FLAG_DEFER_FREE heap flag is given.  However, the lock and size
are used in the shrinker path as well as the deferred free path, and we
can register a shrinker *without* enabling deferred freeing.  So, if a
heap provides a shrinker but *doesn't* set the DEFER_FREE flag we will
use these parameters uninitialized (resulting in a spinlock bug and
broken shrinker accounting).

Fix these problems by initializing the free list parameters directly in
ion_device_add_heap, which is always called no matter which heap
features are being used.
