ipc: fix locking issues
* ipc/ipc_port.h (struct ipc_port): Document locking exception. * ipc/ipc_port.c (ipc_port_destroy): Avoid accessing `port's fields without the lock. (ipc_port_alloc_special): Lock `port'. * ipc/mach_msg.c (mach_msg_trap): Avoid using `ipc_port_flag_protected_payload' on unlocked port. * ipc/ipc_kmsg.c (ipc_kmsg_copyout_header): Likewise.
