vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc

If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some
other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep
splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after
the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable().

This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded
process.  To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for
thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
provided in a separate commit.
