IPC/shared memory: introduce shmctl_down
Currently, the way the different commands are handled in sys_shmctl introduces some duplicated code. This patch introduces the shmctl_down function to handle all the commands requiring the rwmutex to be taken in write mode (ie IPC_SET and IPC_RMID for now). It is the equivalent function of semctl_down for shared memory. This removes some duplicated code for handling these both commands and harmonizes the way they are handled among all IPCs.
