Summary:                    [patch] Change readq locking
Description: 
Revision of chan->readq locking to utilise a list lock rather than the chan
lock. The main advantage of this patch is that channels need not lock
before calling ast_queue_frame or related functions purely to avoid a
deadlock.

Obvious changes to chan_sip and chan_iax have been included. I'm sure
there are others.

I haven't been doing much with asterisk for a while. Testing was limited
and this patch certainly needs significant testing as it could easily lead
to regressions in basically all channels.

I'll try to bring the patch up to date and move it to the review board in
the next couple of weeks.
