binderfs: drop lock in binderfs_binder_ctl_create
The binderfs_binder_ctl_create() call is a no-op on subsequent calls and the first call is done before we unlock the suberblock. Hence, there is no need to take inode_lock() in there. Let's remove it. Suggested-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
