Ryusuke Konishi e59399d010 nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance.  Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().

Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:

  1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
  2. sb->s_umount  (sget acquires)

and nilfs_remount() holds:

  1. sb->s_umount  (locked by the caller in vfs)
  2. bdev->bd_mount_sem

To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().

With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved.  And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.
