[PATCH 5/6] ipc: rename ipc_lock() to ipc_lock_idr()

[Manfred Spraul]

ipc/util.c contains multiple functions to get the ipc object
pointer given an id number.

There are two sets of function: One set verifies the sequence
counter part of the id number, other functions do not check
the sequence counter.

The standard for function names in ipc/util.c is
- ..._check() functions verify the sequence counter
- ..._idr() functions do not verify the sequence counter

ipc_lock() is an exception: It does not verify the sequence
counter value, but this is not obvious from the function name.

Therefore: Rename the function to ipc_lock_idr(), to make it
obvious that it does not check the sequence counter.
