    Push down lock_super into ->write_super instances and remove it from the
    caller.
    
    Following filesystem don't need ->s_lock in ->write_super and are skipped:
    
     * bfs, nilfs2 - no other uses of s_lock and have internal locks in
    	->write_super
     * ext2 - uses BKL in ext2_write_super and has internal calls without s_lock
     * reiserfs - no other uses of s_lock as has reiserfs_write_lock (BKL) in
     	->write_super
     * xfs - no other uses of s_lock and uses internal lock (buffer lock on
    	superblock buffer) to serialize ->write_super.  Also xfs_fs_write_super
    	is superflous and will go away in the next merge window
