[PATCH RFC v2 09/12] fs/configfs: open-code simple_pin_fs()

simple_pin_fs() is protected by an internal spin lock, to
protect against concurrent use of simple_release_fs().
But as we also need to clone the mountpoint we cannot
easily expand the scope of the lock as it's internal to
fs/libfs. So open-code simple_pin_fs() and simple_release_fs()
to be able to use a lock covering all use-cases.
