net: xfrm: fix compress vs decompress serialization
A crash was seen in xfrm when running ltp's 'tcp4_ipsec06' stresser on v4.x
based RT kernels.

ipcomp_compress() will serialize access to the ipcomp_scratches percpu buffer by
disabling BH and preventing a softirq from coming in and running ipcom_decompress(),
which is never called from process context. This of course won't work on RT and
the buffer can get corrupted; there have been similar issues with in the past with
such assumptions, ie: ebf255ed6c44 (net: add back the missing serialization in
ip_send_unicast_reply()).

Similarly, this patch addresses the issue with locallocks allowing RT to have a
percpu spinlock and do the correct serialization.
