vfat: fix 'sync' mount deadlock due to BKL->lock_super conversion

There was another FAT BKL conversion deadlock reported by Bart
Trojanowski due to the BKL being used as a recursive lock by FAT, which
was missed because it only triggers with 'sync' (or 'dirsync') mounts.

The recursion worked for the BKL, but after the conversion to lock_super
(which uses a mutex), it just deadlocks.

Thanks to Bart for debugging this and testing the fix.  The lock
debugging information from the original report:

  =============================================
  [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
  2.6.27-rc3-bisect-00448-ga7f5aaf torvalds#16
  ---------------------------------------------
  mv/4020 is trying to acquire lock:
   (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20

  but task is already holding lock:
   (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20

  other info that might help us debug this:
  3 locks held by mv/4020:

   =======================

where the deadlock is due to the nesting of lock_super from vfat_unlink
to fat_write_inode:

 - do_unlinkat
   - vfs_unlink
     - vfat_unlink
       * lock_super
       - fat_remove_entries
         - fat_sync_inode
           - fat_write_inode
             * lock_super

and the fix is to simply remove the use of lock_super() in fat_write_inode.

The lock_super() there had been just an automatic conversion of the
kernel lock to the superblock lock, but no locking was actually needed
there, since the code in fat_write_inode already protected all relevant
accesses with a spinlock (sbi->inode_hash_lock to be exact).  The only
code inside the BKL (and thus the superblock lock) was accesses tp local
variables or calls to functions that have long been SMP-safe (i.e.
sb_bread, mark_buffe_dirty and brlese).

Bart reports:
 "Looks good.  I ran 10 parallel processes creating 1M files truncating
  them, writing to them again and then deleting them.  This patch fixes
  the issue I ran into.
