kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: don't hold the write recursively in reiserfs_lookup() 

The write lock can be acquired recursively in reiserfs_lookup(). But we may
want to *really* release the lock before possible rescheduling from a
reiserfs_lookup() callee.

Hence we want to only acquire the lock once (ie: not recursively).

[ Impact: prevent from possible false unreleased write lock on sleeping ]
