[PATCH RESEND v2 19/51] xtensa: simdisk: don't read the file name without the lock

[Christian Brauner]

proc_read_simdisk() looks at dev->filename without holding dev->lock. A
write to the same file detaches the disk and frees the name under the
lock, so a concurrent reader can copy out freed memory. Copy the name
with the lock held.
