From: Yu Chao <chao2...@samsung.com>

There is a performance problem: when all sbi->fs_lock are holded, then
all the following threads may get the same next_lock value from 
sbi->next_lock_num
in function mutex_lock_op, and wait for the same lock(fs_lock[next_lock]),
it may cause performance reduce.
So we move the sbi->next_lock_num++ before getting lock, this will average the
following threads if all sbi->fs_lock are holded. 

v1-->v2:
        Drop the needless spin_lock as Jaegeuk suggested.
