afs: Fix directory page locking

The afs directory loading code (primarily afs_read_dir()) locks all the
pages that hold a directory's content blob to defend against
getdents/getdents races and getdents/lookup races where the competitors
issue conflicting reads on the same data.  As the reads will complete
consecutively, they may retrieve different versions of the data and
one may overwrite the data that the other is busy parsing.

Fix this by not locking the pages at all, but rather by turning the
validation lock into an rwsem and getting an exclusive lock on it whilst
reading the data or validating the attributes and a shared lock whilst
parsing the data.  Sharing the attribute validation lock should be fine as
the data fetch will retrieve the attributes also.

The individual page locks aren't needed at all as the only place they're
being used is to serialise data loading.

Without this patch, the:

 	if (!test_bit(AFS_VNODE_DIR_VALID, &dvnode->flags)) {
		...
	}

part of afs_read_dir() may be skipped, leaving the pages unlocked when we
hit the success: clause - in which case we try to unlock the not-locked
pages, leading to the following oops:
