shashank singh 4db949d5b5 gpu: nvgpu: serialize thread exceution to avoid fi races ...

For some code that is tested using public APIs it's not safe for the
parent thread to continue while the child thread is running. Fault
injection per thread pointer points to the same container for both
parent thread as well as the created one. So, there is chance of a race
in fault injection functionality. Serialize the run so that race can be
mitigated. Caller of nvgpu_thread_create() API should ensure that the
created thread is stopped using some fault injection or otherwise.
