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.
