9p: add locking to V9fsDir
If several threads concurrently call readdir() with the same directory
stream pointer, it is possible that they all get a pointer to the same
dirent structure, whose content is overwritten each time readdir() is
called.
We must thus serialize accesses to the dirent structure.
This may be achieved with a mutex like below:
lock_mutex();
readdir();
// work with the dirent
unlock_mutex();
This patch adds all the locking, to prepare the switch to readdir().
