Instead of holding the ipc lock for permissions and security checks, among
others, only acquire it when necessary.

Some numbers....

1) With Rik's semop-multi.c microbenchmark we can see the following
   results:

Baseline (3.9-rc1):
cpus 4, threads: 256, semaphores: 128, test duration: 30 secs
total operations: 151452270, ops/sec 5048409

+  59.40%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] _raw_spin_lock
+   6.14%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] sys_semtimedop
+   3.84%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] avc_has_perm_flags
+   3.64%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] __audit_syscall_exit
+   2.06%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string
+   1.86%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ipc_lock

With this patchset:
cpus 4, threads: 256, semaphores: 128, test duration: 30 secs
total operations: 273156400, ops/sec 9105213

+  18.54%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] _raw_spin_lock
+  11.72%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] sys_semtimedop
+   7.70%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ipc_has_perm.isra.21
+   6.58%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] avc_has_perm_flags
+   6.54%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] __audit_syscall_exit
+   4.71%            a.out  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ipc_obtain_object_check

2) While on an Oracle swingbench DSS (data mining) workload the
   improvements are not as exciting as with Rik's benchmark, we can see
   some positive numbers.  For an 8 socket machine the following are the
   percentages of %sys time incurred in the ipc lock:

Baseline (3.9-rc1):
100 swingbench users: 8,74%
400 swingbench users: 21,86%
800 swingbench users: 84,35%

With this patchset:
100 swingbench users: 8,11%
400 swingbench users: 19,93%
800 swingbench users: 77,69%
