In the mount path, transactions that are made before journal
initialization don't involve the filesystem. We can delay
the reiserfs lock until we play with the journal.

journal_init() doesn't need the lock since no operation
on the filesystem is involved there. journal_read() and
get_list_bitmap() have yet to be reviewed carefully though
before removing the lock there. Just keep the it around these
two calls for safety.

Nothing requires that we lock the filesystem until the root inode
is provided.
Also iget5_locked() triggers a warning because we are holding the
filesystem lock while allocating the inode, which result in a lockdep
suspicion that we have a lock inversion against the reclaim path:

The deadlock shouldn't happen since we are doing that allocation in
the mount path, the filesystem is not available for any reclaim.
Still the warning is annoying.
To solve this, acquire the lock later only where we need it, right
before calling reiserfs_read_locked_inode() that wants to lock to
walk the tree.
