Below is my take on adding a semaphore and making ->setattr() and ->fault()
mutually exclusive. It's only lightly tested so I'd appreciate if Eric
could give it a whirl.

With addition of semaphore to secretmem_setattr() it seems we don't need
special care for size changes, just calling simple_setattr() after taking
the semaphore should be fine. Thoughts?
