afs: fix the usage of read_seqbegin_or_lock() in afs_lookup_volume_rcu()

David Howells says:

 (2) afs_lookup_volume_rcu().

     There can be a lot of volumes known by a system.  A thousand would
     require a 10-step walk and this is drivable by remote operation, so I
     think this should probably take a lock on the second pass too.

Make the "seq" counter odd on the 2nd pass, otherwise read_seqbegin_or_lock()
never takes the lock.
