------------------------------------------------------
From: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@xxxxxx>
Subject: ipc,msg: introduce lockless functions to obtain the ipc object

Add msq_obtain_object() and msq_obtain_object_check(), which will allow us
to get the ipc object without acquiring the lock.  Just as with
semaphores, these functions are basically wrappers around
ipc_obtain_object*().
