Btrfs: fix deadlock running delayed iputs at transaction commit time

While running a stress test I ran into a deadlock when running the delayed
iputs at transaction time, which produced the following report and trace:

This happens because we can recursively acquire the semaphore
fs_info->delayed_iput_sem when attempting to allocate space to satisfy
a file write request as shown in the first trace above - when committing
a transaction we acquire (down_read) the semaphore before running the
delayed iputs, and when running a delayed iput() we can end up calling
an inode's eviction handler, which in turn commits another transaction
and attempts to acquire (down_read) again the semaphore to run more
delayed iput operations.
This results in a deadlock because if a task acquires multiple times a
semaphore it should invoke down_read_nested() with a different lockdep
class for each level of recursion.

Fix this by simplifying the implementation and use a mutex instead that
is acquired by the cleaner kthread before it runs the delayed iputs
instead of always acquiring a semaphore before delayed references are
run from anywhere.
