fix idr_find() locking
This is a patch that fixes the way idr_find() used to be called in ipc_lock():
in all the paths that don't imply an update of the ipcs idr, it was called
without the idr tree being locked.
The changes are:
. in ipc_ids, the mutex has been changed into a reader/writer semaphore.
. ipc_lock() now takes the mutex as a reader during the idr_find().
. a new routine ipc_lock_down() has been defined: it doesn't take the
mutex, assuming that it is being held by the caller. This is the routine
that is now called in all the update paths.
