    reiserfs: Fix vmalloc call under reiserfs lock
    
    Vmalloc is called to allocate journal->j_cnode_free_list but
    we hold the reiserfs lock at this time, which raises a
    {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} lock inversion.
    
    Just drop the reiserfs lock at this time, as it's not even
    needed but kept for paranoid reasons.
    
    This fixes:
    
    [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
    2.6.33-rc5 #1
    ---------------------------------
    inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage.
