closures: fix a race on wakeup from closure_sync
The race was when a thread using closure_sync() notices cl->s->done == 1
before the thread calling closure_put() calls wake_up_process(). Then,
it's possible for that thread to return and exit just before
wake_up_process() is called - so we're trying to wake up a process that
no longer exists.
rcu_read_lock() is sufficient to protect against this, as there's an rcu
barrier somewhere in the process teardown path.
