reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_mutex dependency inversion on xattr

While deleting the xattrs of an inode, we hold the reiserfs lock
and grab the inode->i_mutex of the targeted inode and the root
private xattr directory.

Later on, we may relax the reiserfs lock for various reasons, this
creates inverted dependencies.

We can remove the reiserfs lock -> i_mutex dependency by relaxing
the former before calling open_xa_dir(). This is fine because the
lookup and creation of xattr private directories done in
open_xa_dir() are covered by the targeted inode mutexes. And deeper
operations in the tree are still done under the write lock.

This fixes the following lockdep report:

-------------------------------------------------------
cp/3204 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&REISERFS_SB(s)->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<c11432b9>] reiserfs_write_lock_once+0x29/0x50

but task is already holding lock:
 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#4/3){+.+.+.}, at: [<c1141e18>] open_xa_dir+0xd8/0x1b0

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

v2: Don't drop reiserfs_mutex_lock_nested_safe() as we'll still
    need it later
