fs/dcache: disable preemption on i_dir_seq's write side
i_dir_seq is an opencoded seqcounter. Based on the code it looks like we could have two writers in parallel despite the fact that the d_lock is held. The problem is that during the write process on RT the preemption is still enabled and if this process is interrupted by a reader with RT priority then we lock up. To avoid that lock up I am disabling the preemption during the update. The rename of i_dir_seq is here to ensure to catch new write sides in future.
