Frederic Weisbecker c4a62ca362 reiserfs: Warn on lock relax if taken recursively
When we relax the reiserfs lock to avoid creating unwanted
dependencies against others locks while grabbing these,
we want to ensure it has not been taken recursively, otherwise
the lock won't be really relaxed. Only its depth will be decreased.
The unwanted dependency would then actually happen.

To prevent from that, add a reiserfs_lock_check_recursive() call
in the places that need it.

/*
* The previous reiserfs locking scheme was heavily based on
* the tricky properties of the Bkl:
*
* - it was acquired recursively by a same task
* - the performances relied on the release-while-schedule() property
*
* Now that we replace it by a mutex, we still want to keep the same
* recursive property to avoid big changes in the code structure.
* We use our own lock_owner here because the owner field on a mutex
* is only available in SMP or mutex debugging, also we only need this field
* for this mutex, no need for a system wide mutex facility.
*
* Also this lock is often released before a call that could block because
* reiserfs performances were partialy based on the release while schedule()
* property of the Bkl.
