ipc: rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()
Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() are misleading:
The function must be called while holdling the rw semaphore.
Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check(): This
name matches the other names used in util.c:
- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.
