locks: fix TOCTOU race when granting write lease
Thread A trying to acquire a write lease checks the value of i_readcount and i_writecount in check_conflicting_open() to verify that its own fd is the only fd referencing the file. Thread B trying to open the file for read will call break_lease() in do_dentry_open() before incrementing i_readcount, which leaves a small window where thread A can acquire the write lease and then thread B completes the open of the file for read without breaking the write lease that was acquired by thread A. Fix this race by incrementing i_readcount before checking for existing leases, same as the case with i_writecount. Use a helper put_file_access() to decrement i_readcount or i_writecount in do_dentry_open() and __fput().
