Fix: Lock FD tracker across fork

If fork() is performed while other threads are holding the fd tracker
lock, it will stay in locked state in the child process and eventually
cause a deadlock.

One way to solve this is to hold the fd tracker lock across fork(), in
the same way we do for the ust_lock. This ensures no other threads are
holding that lock in the parent, and therefore provides a consistent
lock state in the child.
