fs: consistently deref the files table with rcu_dereference_raw()

[ Upstream commit f381640e1bd4f2de7ccafbfe8703d33c3718aad9 ]

... except when the table is known to be only used by one thread.

A file pointer can get installed at any moment despite the ->file_lock
being held since the following:
8a81252b774b53e6 ("fs/file.c: don't acquire files->file_lock in fd_install()")

Accesses subject to such a race can in principle suffer load tearing.

While here redo the comment in dup_fd -- it only covered a race against
files showing up, still assuming fd_install() takes the lock.
