elf: Fix data race in _dl_name_match_p [BZ #21349]
dlopen updates libname_list by writing to lastp->next, but concurrent reads in _dl_name_match_p were not synchronized when it was called without holding GL(dl_load_lock), which can happen during lazy symbol resolution. This patch fixes the race between _dl_name_match_p reading lastp->next and add_name_to_object writing to it. This could cause segfault on targets with weak memory order when lastp->next->name is read, which was observed on an arm system. Fixes bug 21349. (Code is from Maninder Singh, comments and description is from Szabolcs Nagy.)
