During the recent conversion of cgroup to kernfs, cgroup_tree_mutex
which nests above both the kernfs s_active protection and cgroup_mutex
is added to synchronize cgroup file type operations as cgroup_mutex
needed to be grabbed from some file operations and thus can't be put
above s_active protection.

While this arrangement mostly worked for cgroup, this triggered the
following lockdep warning.

  trinity-c173/9024 is trying to acquire lock:
  (blkcg_pol_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: blkcg_reset_stats (include/linux/spinlock.h:328 block/blk-cgroup.c:455)

  but task is already holding lock:
  (s_active#89){++++.+}, at: kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:283)

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

  other info that might help us debug this:

  Chain exists of:
  blkcg_pol_mutex --> cgroup_tree_mutex --> s_active#89

   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

	 CPU0                    CPU1
	 ----                    ----
    lock(s_active#89);
				 lock(cgroup_tree_mutex);
				 lock(s_active#89);
    lock(blkcg_pol_mutex);

This is a highly unlikely but valid circular dependency between "echo
1 > blkcg.reset_stats" and cfq module [un]loading.  cgroup is going
through further locking update which will remove this complication but
for now let's use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex and retry the file
operation if the trylock fails.
