Subject: [PATCH RESEND] mm: shmem: fix data-race in shmem_getattr()

I got the following KCSAN report during syzbot testing:

Since there is no special protection when shmem_getattr() calls
generic_fillattr(), data-race occurs by functions such as shmem_unlink()
or shmem_mknod(). This can cause unexpected results, so commenting it out
is not enough.

Therefore, when calling generic_fillattr() from shmem_getattr(), it is
appropriate to protect the inode using inode_lock_shared() and
inode_unlock_shared() to prevent data-race.
