When the owning reader closes and there are still readers open, the owner needs to wait for a new owner to be found before closing its fifo_client handlers. This involves a loop in which dec_nreaders is called at the beginning and inc_nreaders is called at the end. Any other reader that tries to access shmem->_nreaders during this loop will therefore get an inaccurate answer. Fix this by adding an nreaders method and using it instead of dec_nreaders and inc_nreaders. Also add nreaders_lock to control access to the shmem->_nreaders. Make various other changes to improve the reliability of finding a new owner.
