reiserfs: Fix unwanted recursive reiserfs lock in reiserfs_unlink()

Browse source 
reiserfs_unlink() may or may not be called under the reiserfs
lock.
But it also takes the reiserfs lock and can then acquire it
recursively which leads to do_journal_begin_r() that fails to
relax the reiserfs lock before grabbing the journal mutex,
creating an unexpected lock inversion.

We need to ensure reiserfs_unlink() won't get the reiserfs lock
recursively using reiserfs_write_lock_once().

This fixes the following warning that precedes a lock inversion
report (reiserfs lock <-> journal mutex).
