fuse_chan_num_background() is called without holding fch->bg_lock (for
example from fuse_writepages() to compare against fc->congestion_threshold),
while fch->num_background is updated under bg_lock in dev.c and dev_uring.c.
This is the same locked-write/lockless-read pattern already used for
max_background in fuse_chan_max_background().
Use READ_ONCE() on the read side so that:
- The compiler does not cache or coalesce loads of a value that may change
concurrently on another CPU.
- Prevent KCSAN from reporting an unexpected race.
