Btrfs: use a lock to protect incompat/compat flag of the super block



The following case will make the incompat/compat flag of the super block
be recovered.
 Task1					|Task2
 flags = btrfs_super_incompat_flags();	|
					|flags = btrfs_super_incompat_flags();
 flags |= new_flag1;			|
					|flags |= new_flag2;
 btrfs_set_super_incompat_flags(flags);	|
					|btrfs_set_super_incompat_flags(flags);
the new_flag1 is recovered.

In order to avoid this problem, we introduce a lock named super_lock into
the btrfs_fs_info structure. If we want to update incompat/compat flags
of the super block, we must hold it.
