nilfs2: fix potential hang in nilfs_error on errors=remount-ro
nilfs_error() calls nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() if errors=remount-ro option is specified, and this may lead to a hang due to recursive locking of, for instance, nilfs->ns_segctor_sem and others. In this case, detaching segment constructor is not necessary because read-only flag is set to the filesystem and further writes are blocked. This fixes the potential hang issue by removing the nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() call from nilfs_error. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
