[PATCH RT 17/25][RFC 3.0.23-rt39-rc1] fs: Protect open coded isize seqcount

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

A writer might be preempted in the write side critical section on
RT. Disable preemption to avoid endless spinning of a preempting
reader.
