configfs: Fix deadlock with racing rmdir() and rename()
This patch fixes the deadlock between racing sys_rename() and configfs_rmdir().
The idea is to avoid locking i_mutexes of default groups in
configfs_detach_prep(), and rely instead on the new configfs_dirent_lock to
protect against configfs_dirent's linkage mutations. To ensure that an mkdir()
racing with rmdir() will not create new items in a to-be-removed default group,
we make configfs_new_dirent() check for the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag right
before linking the new dirent, and return error if the flag is set. This makes
racing mkdir()/symlink()/dir_open() fail in places where errors could already
happen, resp. in (attach_item()|attach_group())/create_link()/new_dirent().
configfs_depend() remains safe since it locks all the path from configfs root,
and is thus mutually exclusive with rmdir().
An advantage of this is that now detach_groups() unconditionnaly takes the
default groups i_mutex, which makes it more consistent with populate_groups().
