fs: fix data races on inode->i_flctx

locks_get_lock_context() uses cmpxchg() to install i_flctx.
cmpxchg() is a release operation which is correct. But it uses
a plain load to load i_flctx. This is incorrect. Subsequent loads
from i_flctx can hoist above the load of i_flctx pointer itself
and observe uninitialized garbage there. This in turn can lead
to corruption of ctx->flc_lock and other members.

Documentation/memory-barriers.txt explicitly requires to use
a barrier in such context:
"A load-load control dependency requires a full read memory barrier".

Use smp_load_acquire() in locks_get_lock_context() and in bunch
of other functions that can proceed concurrently with
locks_get_lock_context().

The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).
