tracefs: Avoid changing i_mode to a temp value

Right now inode->i_mode is updated twice to reach the desired value
in tracefs_apply_options(). Because there is no lock protecting the two
writes, other threads might read the intermediate value of inode->i_mode.

Thread-1			Thread-2
// tracefs_apply_options()	//e.g., acl_permission_check
inode->i_mode &= ~S_IALLUGO;
				unsigned int mode = inode->i_mode;
inode->i_mode |= opts->mode;

I think there is no need to introduce a lock but it is better to
only update inode->i_mode ONCE, so the readers will either see the old
or latest value, rather than an intermediate/temporary value.

Note, the race is not a security concern as the intermediate value is more
locked down than either the start or end version. This is more just to do
the conversion cleanly.
