[PATCH chao/erofs-dev 1/7] staging: erofs: fix use-after-free of on-stack `z_erofs_vle_unzip_io'

The root cause is the race as follows:
 Thread #0                         Thread #1

 z_erofs_vle_unzip_kickoff         z_erofs_submit_and_unzip

                                    struct z_erofs_vle_unzip_io io[]
   atomic_add_return()
                                    wait_event()
                                    [end of function]
   wake_up()

Fix it by taking the waitqueue lock between atomic_add_return and
wake_up to close such the race.
