6pack,mkiss: fix lock inconsistency

Lockdep found a locking inconsistency in the mkiss_close function:

> kernel: [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
> kernel: 2.6.39.1 #3
> kernel: ---------------------------------
> kernel: inconsistent {IN-SOFTIRQ-R} -> {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} usage.
> kernel: ax25ipd/2813 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes:
> kernel: (disc_data_lock){+++?.-}, at: [<ffffffffa018552b>] mkiss_close+0x1b/0x90 [mkiss]
> kernel: {IN-SOFTIRQ-R} state was registered at:

The message hints that disc_data_lock is aquired with softirqs disabled,
but does not itself disable softirqs, which can in rare circumstances
lead to a deadlock. 
The same problem is present in the 6pack driver, this patch fixes both
by using write_lock_bh instead of write_lock.
