[PATCH 02/12] BKL: Remove BKL from fat

[Arnd Bergmann]

The lock_kernel in fat_put_super is not needed because
it only protects the super block itself and we know that
no other thread can reach it because we are about to
kfree the object.

In the two fill_super functions, this converts the locking
to use lock_super like elsewhere in the fat code. This
is probably not needed either, but is consistent and puts
us on the safe side.
