tomoyo: Use atomic_t for statistics counter

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1864904
commit a8772fad0172aeae339144598b809fd8d4823331 upstream.

syzbot is reporting that there is a race at tomoyo_stat_update() [1].
Although it is acceptable to fail to track exact number of times policy
was updated, convert to atomic_t because this is not a hot path.
