sysctl: Fix data-races in proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies().
A sysctl variable is accessed concurrently, and there is always a chance
of data-race. So, all readers and writers need some basic protection to
avoid load/store-tearing.
This patch changes proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies() to use READ_ONCE() and
WRITE_ONCE() internally to fix data-races on the sysctl side. For now,
proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies() itself is tolerant to a data-race, but we still
need to add annotations on the other subsystem's side.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
