[PATCH 06/11] ipc,msg: introduce msgctl_nolock

[Davidlohr Bueso]

Similar to semctl, when calling msgctl, the *_INFO and *_STAT
commands can be performed without acquiring the ipc object.

Add a msgctl_nolock() function and move the logic of *_INFO
and *_STAT out of msgctl(). This change still takes the lock
and it will be properly lockless in the next patch
