[PATCH V2] f2fs: optimize fs_lock for better performance

[Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com>]

From: Yu Chao <chao2.yu@samsung.com>

There is a performance problem: when all sbi->fs_lock are holded, then
all the following threads may get the same next_lock value from sbi->next_lock_num
in function mutex_lock_op, and wait for the same lock(fs_lock[next_lock]),
it may cause performance reduce.
So we move the sbi->next_lock_num++ before getting lock, this will average the
following threads if all sbi->fs_lock are holded. 

v1-->v2:
	Drop the needless spin_lock as Jaegeuk suggested.
