fs: use acquire ordering in __fget_light()
We must prevent the CPU from reordering the files->count read with the FD table access like this, on architectures where read-read reordering is possible: files_lookup_fd_raw() close_fd() put_files_struct() atomic_read(&files->count) I would like to mark this for stable, but the stable rules explicitly say "no theoretical races", and given that the FD table pointer and files->count are explicitly stored in the same cacheline, this sort of reordering seems quite unlikely in practice...
