There is a use-after-free issue, if access udc_name
in function gadget_dev_desc_UDC_store after another context
free udc_name in function unregister_gadget.

Contex 1:
gadget_dev_desc_UDC_store()->unregister_gadget()->
free udc_name->set udc_name to NULL

Contex 2:
gadget_dev_desc_UDC_show()-> access udc_name

Add mutex_lock to protect this kind of scenario.
