runner: fix state_lock and cfgfs use

The kernel can end up taking a configfs lock then call up to userspace,
so we must not have a lock that is taken in this upcall and is taken
when interacting with configfs. As reported by sherlockxiao:

#595

this happens with the state_lock where during deletion the kernel will
hold the state_lock, but some code paths will hold the state_lock while
calling into configfs.

This moves our configfs access out of the state_lock.
