fscrypt: avoid data race on fscrypt_mode::logged_impl_name
The access to logged_impl_name is technically a data race, which tools like KCSAN could complain about in the future. See: https://github.com/google/ktsan/wiki/READ_ONCE-and-WRITE_ONCE Fix by using xchg(), which also ensures that only one thread does the logging. This also required switching from bool to int, to avoid a build error on the RISC-V architecture which doesn't implement xchg on bytes. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>
