xfrm: avoid spinlock in get_acqseq() used by xfrm user 

Eric's version fixed it for pfkey. This one is for xfrm user.
I thought about amortizing those two get_acqseq()s but it seems
reasonable to have two of these sequence spaces for the two different
interfaces.

cheers,

    xfrm: avoid spinlock in get_acqseq() used by xfrm user

    This is in the same spirit as commit 28aecb9d77
    by Eric Dumazet.
    Use atomic_inc_return() in get_acqseq() to avoid taking a spinlock
