[PATCH review-only 12/17] io_uring/zcrx: move freelist lock to struct zcrx

Message-ID <20260711104005.yarGJjYAPyToiVsJ4rOjWMTMLbqBaeJru8rZyJFau3A@z>
freelist_lock, which protects slow path allocations, is currently stored
in struct io_zcrx_area. Once we add support for multiple queues, we'll
need a lock in the zcrx ctx, move it there.
