kernfs: Move faulting copy_user operations outside of the mutex

A fault in a user provided buffer may lead anywhere, and lockdep warns
that we have a potential deadlock between the mm->mmap_sem and the
kernfs file mutex:

Highly unlikely though this scenario is, we can avoid the issue entirely
by moving the copy operation from out under the kernfs_get_active()
tracking by assigning the preallocated buffer its own mutex. The
temporary buffer allocation doesn't require mutex locking as it is
entirely local.

The locked section was extended by the addition of the preallocated buf
to speed up md user operations in

commit 2b75869bba676c248d8d25ae6d2bd9221dfffdb6
Author: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
Date:   Mon Oct 13 16:41:28 2014 +1100

    sysfs/kernfs: allow attributes to request write buffer be pre-allocated.
