fuse: fix blocked_waitq wakeup

Using waitqueue_active() is racy. Make sure we issue a wake_up() unconditionally after storing into fc->blocked. After that it's okay to optimize with waitqueue_active() since the first wake up provides the necessary barrier for all waiters, not the just the woken one.
