ext2: Add ext2_sb_info s_lock spinlock
Add a spinlock that protects against concurrent modifications of s_mount_state, s_blocks_last, s_overhead_last and the content of the superblock's buffer pointed to by sbi->s_es. The spinlock is now used in ext2_xattr_update_super_block() which was setting the EXT2_FEATURE_COMPAT_EXT_ATTR flag on the superblock without protection before. Likewise the spinlock is used in ext2_show_options() to have a consistent view of the mount options. This is a preparation patch for removing the BKL from ext2 in the next patch.
