ext4: prevent parallel resizers by atomic bit ops
Before this patch, parallel resizers are allowed and protected by a mutex lock, actually, there is no need to support parallel resizer, so this patch prevents parallel resizers by atmoic bit ops, like lock_page() and unlock_page() do. To do this, the patch removed the mutex lock s_resize_lock from struct ext4_sb_info and added a unsigned long field named s_resize_flags which inidicates if there is a resizer.
