nilfs2: get rid of sget use for acquiring nilfs object

This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb()
function.

Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs
object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget()
call.

This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function
find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an
existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no
object is found on the device.
