[PATCH] libceph: Avoid unsequenced accesses to jiffies in dump_linger_request()

[Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>]

After a recent improvement in clang to warn on unsequenced accesses to
volatile variables [1], an instance appear in dump_linger_request(),
which can break the build with CONFIG_WERROR=y / W=e:

  net/ceph/debugfs.c:269:42: error: unsequenced accesses to volatile qualified 'jiffies' [-Werror,-Wunsequenced]
    267 |                    req ? jiffies_to_msecs(jiffies - req->r_start_stamp) : 0,
        |                                           ~~~~~~~
    268 |                    lreq->is_watch && lreq->committed && !lreq->last_error ?
    269 |                         jiffies_to_msecs(jiffies - lreq->watch_valid_thru) : 0,
        |                                          ^

Per C11 5.1.2.3.2, accessing a volatile object is a side effect. Per C11
6.5.2, unsequenced side effects on the same scalar object are undefined
behavior. Per C11 6.5.2.2.10/12, the evaluation of arguments in a
function call is indeterminately sequenced, meaning any side effects in
the arguments are unsequenced.

Add a local variable to hold the value of jiffies before the function
call so that there are no unsequenced side effects, clearing up the
warning.
