[PATCH V3 2/2] [BUGFIX] virtio/console: Add pipe_lock/unlock forsplice_write

[Yoshihiro YUNOMAE]

Add pipe_lock/unlock for splice_write to avoid oops by following competition:

(1) An application gets fds of a trace buffer, virtio-serial, pipe.
(2) The application does fork()
(3) The processes execute splice_read(trace buffer) and
    splice_write(virtio-serial) via same pipe.

        <parent>                   <child>
  get fds of a trace buffer,
         virtio-serial, pipe
          |
        fork()----------create--------+
          |                           |
      splice(read)                    |           ---+
      splice(write)                   |              +-- no competition
          |                       splice(read)       |
          |                       splice(write)   ---+
          |                           |
      splice(read)                    |
      splice(write)               splice(read)    ------ competition
          |                       splice(write)

Two processes share a pipe_inode_info structure. If the child execute
splice(read) when the parent tries to execute splice(write), the
structure can be broken. Existing virtio-serial driver does not get
lock for the structure in splice_write, so this competition will induce
oops.
