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.
