Convert isec->lock from a mutex into a spinlock. Instead of holding the
lock while sleeping in inode_doinit_with_dentry, set isec->initialized
to LABEL_PENDING and release the lock. Then, when the sid has been
determined, re-acquire the lock. If isec->initialized is still set to
LABEL_PENDING, set isec->sid; otherwise, the sid has been set by another
task (LABEL_INITIALIZED) or invalidated (LABEL_INVALID) in the meantime.
This fixes a deadlock on gfs2 where
* one task is in inode_doinit_with_dentry -> gfs2_getxattr, holds
isec->lock, and tries to acquire the inode's glock, and
* another task is in do_xmote -> inode_go_inval ->
selinux_inode_invalidate_secctx, holds the inode's glock, and tries
to acquire isec->lock.
