liveupdate: protect file handler list with rwsem
Because liveupdate file handlers will no longer hold a module reference when registered, we must ensure that the access to the handler list is protected against concurrent module unloading. Utilize the global luo_register_rwlock to protect the global registry of file handlers. Read locks are taken during list traversals in luo_preserve_file() and luo_file_deserialize(). Write locks are taken during registration and unregistration.
