[PATCH] arm64: fix oops in concurrently setting insn_emulation sysctls

["haibinzhang(张海斌)" <haibinzhang@tencent.com>]

How to reproduce:
    launch two shell executions:
       #!/bin/bash
       while [ 1 ];
       do
           echo 1 > /proc/sys/abi/swp
       done

Oops info:
    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000010
    Internal error: Oops: 96000006 [#1] SMP
    Call trace:
    update_insn_emulation_mode+0xc0/0x148
    emulation_proc_handler+0x64/0xb8
    proc_sys_call_handler+0x9c/0xf8

    el0_svc_handler+0x2c/0xa0
    el0_svc+0x8/0x200

emulation_proc_handler changes table->data for proc_dointvec_minmax
and so it isn't allowed to reenter before restoring table->data,
which isn't right now.
To fix this issue, Add mutal exclusion covering related code section.
