x86/ldt: Rework locking

The LDT is duplicated on fork() and on exec(), which is wrong as exec()
should start from a clean state, i.e. without LDT. To fix this the LDT
duplication code will be moved into arch_dup_mmap() which is only called
for fork().

This introduces a locking problem. arch_dup_mmap() holds mmap_sem of the
parent process, but the LDT duplication code needs to acquire
mm->context.lock to access the LDT data safely, which is the reverse lock
order of write_ldt() where mmap_sem nests into context.lock.

Solve this by introducing a new rw semaphore which serializes the
read/write_ldt() syscall operations and use context.lock to protect the
actual installment of the LDT descriptor.

So context.lock stabilizes mm->context.ldt and can nest inside of the new
semaphore or mmap_sem.
