fs/super.c: add lockdep annotation to s_umount

Thread 1:
  for ((; ;))
  {
      mount -t cpuset xxx /mnt > /dev/null 2>&1
      cat /mnt/cpus > /dev/null 2>&1
      umount /mnt > /dev/null 2>&1
  }

Thread 2:
  for ((; ;))
  {
      mount -t cpuset xxx /mnt > /dev/null 2>&1
      umount /mnt > /dev/null 2>&1
  }

(Note: It is irrelevant which cgroup subsys is used.)

After a while a lockdep warning showed up:

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.28 #479
---------------------------------------------
mount/13554 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&type->s_umount_key#19){--..}, at: [<c049d888>] sget+0x5e/0x321

but task is already holding lock:
 (&type->s_umount_key#19){--..}, at: [<c049da0c>] sget+0x1e2/0x321

other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by mount/13554:
 #0:  (&type->s_umount_key#19){--..}, at: [<c049da0c>] sget+0x1e2/0x321

The cause is after alloc_super() and then retry, an old entry in list
fs_supers is found, so grab_super(old) is called, but both functions hold
s_umount lock:

struct super_block *sget(...)
{
	...
retry:
	spin_lock(&sb_lock);
	if (test) {
		list_for_each_entry(old, &type->fs_supers, s_instances) {
			if (!test(old, data))
				continue;
			if (!grab_super(old))  <--- 2nd: down_write(&old->s_umount);
				goto retry;
			if (s)
				destroy_super(s);
			return old;
		}
	}
	if (!s) {
		spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
		s = alloc_super(type);   <--- 1th: down_write(&s->s_umount)
		if (!s)
			return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
		goto retry;
	}
	...
}

It seems like a false positive, and seems like VFS but not cgroup needs to
be fixed.

We can simply put the new s_umount instance in a but lockdep doesn't
particularly cares about subclass order.

If there's any issue with the callers of sget() assuming the s_umount lock
being of sublcass 0, then there is another annotation we can use to fix
that, but lets not bother with that if this is sufficient.
