fscrypt: use READ_ONCE() to access ->i_crypt_info
->i_crypt_info starts out NULL and may later be locklessly set to a non-NULL value by the cmpxchg() in fscrypt_get_encryption_info(). But ->i_crypt_info is used directly, which technically is incorrect. It's a data race, and it doesn't include the data dependency barrier needed to safely dereference the pointer on at least one architecture. Fix this by using READ_ONCE() instead. Note: we don't need to use smp_load_acquire(), since dereferencing the pointer only requires a data dependency barrier, which is already included in READ_ONCE(). We also don't need READ_ONCE() in places where ->i_crypt_info is unconditionally dereferenced, since it must have already been checked. Also downgrade the cmpxchg() to cmpxchg_release(), since RELEASE semantics are sufficient on the write side.
