[PATCH v5 4/5] ceph: move mdsc->mutex into __do_request()

From: Xiubo Li <[email protected]>

Currently every caller must hold mdsc->mutex when invoking the
request-send machinery.  Move the mutex acquisition inside
__do_request() so that callers can fire off a request without
first serializing on the global lock.  The mutex is released
before the network send phase and re-acquired only for cleanup,
so dentry traversal and message construction run concurrently
across CPUs.

This is the primary source of the observed 2x stat throughput
improvement: the per-request send path shrinks from hundreds of
microseconds to tens of microseconds once it no longer waits on
the mutex.  Wait-list draining, session-state wake-ups, and
request kicking are reworked to either use the new wait-list
spinlock or collect candidates under the mutex and process them
outside it.
