sysfs: fix use after free in case of concurrent read/write and readdir
commit
f7db5e7660b122142410dcf36ba903c73d473250 upstream.
The inode->i_mutex isn't hold when updating filp->f_pos
in read()/write(), so the filp->f_pos might be read as
0 or 1 in readdir() when there is concurrent read()/write()
on this same file, then may cause use after free in readdir().
The bug can be reproduced with Li Zefan's test code on the

This patch fixes the use after free under this situation.
