autofs4 - remove ioctl mutex (bz23142)
With the recent changes to remove the BKL a mutex was added to the ioctl entry point for calls to the old ioctl interface. This mutex needs to be removed because of the need for the expire ioctl to call back to the daemon to perform a umount and receive a completion status (via another ioctl). This should be fine as the new ioctl interface uses much of the same code and it has been used without a mutex for around a year without issue, as was the original intention.
