    dix: Hold input lock for AttachDevice()
    
    Fix the following race:
    
    Possible data race during read of size 8 at 0xA112510 by thread #6
    Locks held: 1, at address 0x366B40

       by 0x143A3D: main (stubmain.c:34)
     Block was alloc'd by thread #1
    
    The steps to trigger the race are:
    1. Main thread does cleanup at mipointer.c:360 setting the slave device's
       miPointerPtr to null.
    2. Input thread use MIPOINTER in mipointer.c and get the slave's
       miPointerPtr = null.
    3. Main thread updates dev->master at devices.c:2609.
    4. MIPOINTER would now return the master's miPointerPtr but the input
       thread already got the slave's miPointerPtr in step 2 and segfaults by
       null ptr deref.
