staging/lustre/libcfs: protect kkuc_groups from write access
Since reg->kr_fp can be changed inside the foreach loop, kkuc_groups must be write protected, and not just read protected. This should fix the following oops, which could happen if two different threads simultaneously execute the function, and EPIPE is returned.
