Fix zpl_mount() deadlock 

Commit 93b43af10 inadvertently introduced the following scenario which
can result in a deadlock.  This issue was most easily reproduced by
LXD containers using a ZFS storage backend but should be reproducible
under any workload which is frequently mounting and unmounting.

-- THREAD A --
spa_sync()
  spa_sync_upgrades()
    rrw_enter(&dp->dp_config_rwlock, RW_WRITER, FTAG); <- Waiting on B

-- THREAD B --

  zpl_mount()
    zpl_mount_impl()
      dmu_objset_hold()
        dmu_objset_hold_flags()
          dsl_pool_hold()
            dsl_pool_config_enter()
              rrw_enter(&dp->dp_config_rwlock, RW_READER, tag);
    sget()
      sget_userns()
        grab_super()
          down_write(&s->s_umount); <- Waiting on C
