configfs: Fix race between configfs_readdir() and configfs_d_iput()

upstream id: 24307aa1

configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the
dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently
instantiated.  There is a race where a closing attribute file can be
tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its
inode number.

We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they
should match while instantiated.  We can't lock down the transition
where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there.
We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in
configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it.

configfs: fix race between dentry put and lookup

upstream commit: 76ae281f6

A race window in configfs, it starts from one dentry is UNHASHED and end
before configfs_d_iput is called.  In this window, if a lookup happen,
since the original dentry was UNHASHED, so a new dentry will be
allocated, and then in configfs_attach_attr(), sd->s_dentry will be
updated to the new dentry.  Then in configfs_d_iput(),
BUG_ON(sd->s_dentry != dentry) will be triggered and system panic.

sys_open:                     sys_close:
 ...                           fput
                                dput
                                 dentry_kill
                                  __d_drop <--- dentry unhashed here,
                                           but sd->dentry still point
                                           to this dentry.

 lookup_real
  configfs_lookup
   configfs_attach_attr---> update sd->s_dentry
                            to new allocated dentry here.

                                   d_kill
                                     configfs_d_iput <--- BUG_ON(sd->s_dentry != dentry)
                                                     triggered here.

To fix it, change configfs_d_iput to not update sd->s_dentry if
sd->s_count > 2, that means there are another dentry is using the sd
beside the one that is going to be put.  Use configfs_dirent_lock in
configfs_attach_attr to sync with configfs_d_iput.

With the following steps, you can reproduce the bug.

1. enable ocfs2, this will mount configfs at /sys/kernel/config and
   fill configure in it.

2. run the following script.
	while [ 1 ]; do cat /sys/kernel/config/cluster/$your_cluster_name/idle_timeout_ms > /dev/null; done &
	while [ 1 ]; do cat /sys/kernel/config/cluster/$your_cluster_name/idle_timeout_ms > /dev/null; done &
