ocfs2: avoid system inode ref confusion by adding mutex lock
The following case may lead to the same system inode ref in confusion.
A thread B thread
ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
->get_local_system_inode
->_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
because of *arr == NULL,
ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
->get_local_system_inode
->_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
gets first ref thru
_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode,
gets second ref thru igrab and
set *arr = inode
at the moment, B thread also gets
two refs, so lead to one more
inode ref.
So add mutex lock to avoid multi thread set two inode ref once at the
same time.
