pipe: take allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info out of ->i_mutex

* new field - pipe->files; number of struct file over that pipe (all
  sharing the same inode, of course); protected by inode->i_lock.
* pipe_release() decrements pipe->files, clears inode->i_pipe when
  if the counter has reached 0 (all under ->i_lock) and, in that case,
  frees pipe after having done pipe_unlock()
* fifo_open() starts with grabbing ->i_lock, and either bumps pipe->files
  if ->i_pipe was non-NULL or allocates a new pipe (dropping and regaining
  ->i_lock) and rechecks ->i_pipe; if it's still NULL, inserts new pipe
  there, otherwise bumps ->i_pipe->files and frees the one we'd allocated.
  At that point we know that ->i_pipe is non-NULL and won't go away, so
  we can do pipe_lock() on it and proceed as we used to.  If we end up
  failing, decrement pipe->files and if it reaches 0 clear ->i_pipe and
  free the sucker after pipe_unlock().
