rcutorture: Fix rcu_torture_one_read()/rcu_torture_writer() data race

The ->rtort_pipe_count field in the rcu_torture structure checks for
too-short grace periods, and is therefore read by rcutorture's readers
while being updated by rcutorture's writers. This commit therefore
adds the needed READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() invocations.

This data race was reported by KCSAN. Not appropriate for backporting
due to failure being unlikely and due to this being rcutorture.
