[CIFS] Fix locking problem around some cifs uses of i_size write
Could cause hangs on smp systems in i_size_read on a cifs inode whose size has been previously simultaneously updated from different processes. Thanks to Brian Wang for some great testing/debugging on this hard problem. Fixes kernel bugzilla #7903 CC: Shirish Pargoankar <shirishp@us.ibm.com> CC: Shaggy <shaggy@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
