Ian Kent 0559f63057 kernfs: fix missing kernfs_iattr_rwsem locking
When the kernfs_iattr_rwsem was introduced a case was missed.

The update of the kernfs directory node child count was also protected
by the kernfs_rwsem and needs to be included in the change so that the
child count (and so the inode n_link attribute) does not change while
holding the rwsem for read.

Fixes: 9caf696142 ("kernfs: Introduce separate rwsem to protect inode attributes.")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
