sysfs: fix use after free in case of concurrent read/write and readdir

Browse Source 
commit f7db5e7660 upstream.

The inode->i_mutex isn't hold when updating filp->f_pos
in read()/write(), so the filp->f_pos might be read as
0 or 1 in readdir() when there is concurrent read()/write()
on this same file, then may cause use after free in readdir().

The bug can be reproduced with Li Zefan's test code on the
link:

	https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2160771/

This patch fixes the use after free under this situation.
