Subject: [PATCH 0/3] reiserfs: Reduce a bit reiserfs lock coverage on mount path

This cleans up a bit the code and fixes a lock inversion.
No real regression fixed though so this is rather 3.3 material.

Thanks.

Frederic Weisbecker (3):
  reiserfs: Delay reiserfs lock until journal initialization
  reiserfs: Don't lock journal_init()
  reiserfs: Don't lock root inode searching
