[CRIU] [PATCH v3] mount: Order call_helper_process calls

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

When we do clone threads in a later stage of restore procedure
it may race with helpers which do call clone_noasan by self.

Thus we need to walk over each clone_noasan call and figure
out if calling it without last_pid lock is safe.

 - open_mountpoint: called by fusectl_dump, dump_empty_fs,
   binfmt_misc_dump, tmpfs_dump -- they all are processing
   dump stage, thus safe

 - call_helper_process: try_remount_writable -- called from
   various places in reg-files.c, in particular open_reg_by_id
   called in parallel with other threads, needs a lock
   remount_readonly_mounts -- called from sigreturn_restore,
   so in parallel, needs a lock

 - call_in_child_process: prepare_net_namespaces -- called
   from prepare_namespace which runs before we start forking,
   no need for lock

Thus call_helper_process should use lock_last_pid and
unlock_last_pid helpers and wait for subprocess to finish.

Same time put a warning text into clone_noasan comment
so next time we need to use it we would recall the pitfalls.

v2:
 - fix unitialized ret variable
v3:
 - use exit_code instead of ret
