configfs: Fix failing mkdir() making racing rmdir() fail 

When fixing the rename() vs rmdir() deadlock, we stopped locking default groups'
inodes in configfs_detach_prep(), letting racing mkdir() in default groups
proceed concurrently. This enables races like below happen, which leads to a
failing mkdir() making rmdir() fail, despite the group to remove having no
user-created directory under it in the end.

	process A: 			process B:
	/* PWD=A/B */
	mkdir("C")
	  make_item("C")
	  attach_group("C")
					rmdir("A")
					  detach_prep("A")
					    detach_prep("B")
					      error because of "C"
					  return -ENOTEMPTY
	    attach_group("C/D")
	      error (eg -ENOMEM)
	  return -ENOMEM

This patch prevents such scenarii by making rmdir() wait as long as
detach_prep() fails because a racing mkdir() is in the middle of attach_group().
To achieve this, mkdir() sets a flag CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR in parent's
configfs_dirent before calling attach_group(), and clears the flag once
attach_group() is done. detach_prep() fails with -EAGAIN whenever the flag is
hit and returns the guilty inode's mutex so that rmdir() can wait on it.
