btrfs: fix mount failure due to remount races

[BUG]
The following reproducer can cause btrfs mount to fail:

  dev="/dev/test/scratch1"
  mnt1="/mnt/test"
  mnt2="/mnt/scratch"

  mkfs.btrfs -f $dev
  mount $dev $mnt1
  btrfs subvolume create $mnt1/subvol1
  btrfs subvolume create $mnt1/subvol2
  umount $mnt1

  mount $dev $mnt1 -o subvol=subvol1
  while mount -o remount,ro $mnt1; do mount -o remount,rw $mnt1; done &
  bg=$!

  while mount $dev $mnt2 -o subvol=subvol2; do umount $mnt2; done

  kill $bg
  wait
  umount -R $mnt1
  umount -R $mnt2

The script will fail with the following error:

  mount: /mnt/scratch: /dev/mapper/test-scratch1 already mounted on /mnt/test.
        dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
  umount: /mnt/test: target is busy.
  umount: /mnt/scratch/: not mounted

And there is no kernel error message.

[CAUSE]
During the btrfs mount, to support mounting different subvolumes with
different RO/RW flags, we need to detect that and retry if needed:

  Retry with matching RO flags if the initial mount fail with -EBUSY.

The problem is, during that retry we do not hold any super block lock
(s_umount), this means there can be a remount process changing the RO
flags of the original fs super block.

If so, we can have an EBUSY error during retry.  And this time we treat
any failure as an error, without any retry and cause the above EBUSY
mount failure.

[FIX]
The current retry behavior is racy because we do not have a super block
thus no way to hold s_umount to prevent the race with remount.

Solve the root problem by allowing fc->sb_flags to mismatch from the
sb->s_flags at btrfs_get_tree_super().

Then at the re-entry point btrfs_get_tree_subvol(), manually check the
fc->s_flags against sb->s_flags, if it's a RO->RW mismatch, then
reconfigure with s_umount lock hold.
