kcsan: Avoid nested contexts reading inconsistent reorder_access
Nested contexts, such as nested interrupts or scheduler code, share the
same kcsan_ctx. When such a nested context reads an inconsistent
reorder_access due to an interrupt during set_reorder_access(), we can
observe the following warning:

The warning is telling us that there was a data race which KCSAN wants
to report, but the function where the original access (that is now
reordered) happened cannot be found in the stack trace, which prevents
KCSAN from generating the right stack trace. The stack trace of "write
(reordered)" now only shows where the access was reordered to, but
should instead show the stack trace of the original write, with a final
line saying "reordered to".
At the point where set_reorder_access() is interrupted, it just set
reorder_access->ptr and size, at which point size is non-zero. This is
sufficient (if ctx->disable_scoped is zero) for further accesses from
nested contexts to perform checking of this reorder_access.
That then happened in _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(), which is called by
scheduler code. However, since reorder_access->ip is still stale (ptr
and size belong to a different ip not yet set) this finally leads to
replace_stack_entry() not finding the frame in reorder_access->ip and
generating the above warning.
Fix it by ensuring that a nested context cannot access reorder_access
while we update it in set_reorder_access(): set ctx->disable_scoped for
the duration that reorder_access is updated, which effectively locks
reorder_access and prevents concurrent use by nested contexts. Note,
set_reorder_access() can do the update only if disabled_scoped is zero
on entry, and must therefore set disable_scoped back to non-zero after
the initial check in set_reorder_access().
