proc/kcore: fix memory hotplug vs multiple opens race 

There's a theoretical race condition that will cause /proc/kcore to miss
a memory hotplug event:

CPU0                              CPU1
// hotplug event 1
kcore_need_update = 1

open_kcore()                      open_kcore()
    kcore_update_ram()                kcore_update_ram()
        // Walk RAM                       // Walk RAM
        __kcore_update_ram()              __kcore_update_ram()
            kcore_need_update = 0

// hotplug event 2
kcore_need_update = 1
                                              kcore_need_update = 0

Note that CPU1 set up the RAM kcore entries with the state after hotplug
event 1 but cleared the flag for hotplug event 2.  The RAM entries will
therefore be stale until there is another hotplug event.

This is an extremely unlikely sequence of events, but the fix makes the
synchronization saner, anyways: we serialize the entire update sequence,
which means that whoever clears the flag will always succeed in replacing
the kcore list.
