Subject: [PATCH 3/8] staging/lustre: fix 'data race condition' issues in at_reset()

From: Sebastien Buisson <sebastien.buisson@...l.net>

Fix 'data race condition' defects found by Coverity version
6.5.0:
Data race condition (MISSING_LOCK)
Accessing variable without holding lock. Elsewhere,
this variable is accessed with lock held.

at_reset() needs to take at->at_lock before modifying its members.
