If you must, I guess you can use blue locktite to prevent the top race from loosening. I personally wouldn't ride like that though.....
But OTOH, my old Stronglight headset (X94?) uses an one piece integral upper race/locknut which simply screws and grabs onto the steerer tight and will not back out.
edit: never mind the above. Find an old fork with a longer steerer tube.
