splice: add helpers for locking pipe inode

Browse Source 
There are lots of sequences like this, especially in splice code:

	if (pipe->inode)
		mutex_lock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);
	/* do something */
	if (pipe->inode)
		mutex_unlock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);

so introduce helpers which do the conditional locking and unlocking.
Also replace the inode_double_lock() call with a pipe_double_lock()
helper to avoid spreading the use of this functionality beyond the
pipe code.

This patch is just a cleanup, and should cause no behavioral changes.
