shmem: fix possible deadlocks on shmlock_user_lock

Recent commit 71725ed1 ("mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page()
when punching hole") has allowed syzkaller to probe deeper, uncovering a
long-standing lockdep issue between the irq-unsafe shmlock_user_lock,
the irq-safe xa_lock on mapping->i_pages, and shmem inode's info->lock
which nests inside xa_lock (or tree_lock) since 4.8's shmem_uncharge().

user_shm_lock(), servicing SysV shmctl(SHM_LOCK), wants
shmlock_user_lock while its caller shmem_lock() holds info->lock with
interrupts disabled; but hugetlbfs_file_setup() calls user_shm_lock()
with interrupts enabled, and might be interrupted by a writeback endio
wanting xa_lock on i_pages.

This may not risk an actual deadlock, since shmem inodes do not take
part in writeback accounting, but there are several easy ways to avoid
it.

Requiring interrupts disabled for shmlock_user_lock would be easy, but
it's a high-level global lock for which that seems inappropriate.
Instead, recall that the use of info->lock to guard info->flags in
shmem_lock() dates from pre-3.1 days, when races with SHMEM_PAGEIN and
SHMEM_TRUNCATE could occur: nowadays it serves no purpose, the only flag
added or removed is VM_LOCKED itself, and calls to shmem_lock() an inode
are already serialized by the caller.

Take info->lock out of the chain and the possibility of deadlock or
lockdep warning goes away.
