Subject: [PATCH 04/12] ipc: Rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock().

Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()
are misleading: The function must be called while holdling
the rw semaphore.
Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check():
This name matches the other names used in util.c:
- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
  acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.
