Subject: ipc,msg: prevent race with rmid in msgsnd,msgrcv

This fixes a race in both msgrcv() and msgsnd() between finding the msg
and actually dealing with the queue, as another thread can delete shmid
underneath us if we are preempted before acquiring the kern_ipc_perm.lock.

Manfred illustrates this nicely:

Assume a preemptible kernel that is preempted just after
> msq = msq_obtain_object_check(ns, msqid)
in do_msgrcv().
The only lock that is held is rcu_read_lock().

Now the other thread processes IPC_RMID.  When the first task is resumed,
then it will happily wait for messages on a deleted queue.

Fix this by checking for if the queue has been deleted after taking the
lock.
