Similar to semctl and msgctl, when calling msgctl, the *_INFO and *_STAT commands can be performed without acquiring the ipc object. Add a shmctl_nolock() function and move the logic of *_INFO and *_STAT out of msgctl(). Since we are just moving functionality, this change still takes the lock and it will be properly lockless in the next patch.
