f2fs: add global mutex_lock to protect f2fs_stat_list

There is an race condition between umounting f2fs and reading f2fs/status, which
results in oops.

Fox example:
Thread A			Thread B
umount f2fs 			cat f2fs/status

f2fs_destroy_stats() {		stat_show() {
				 list_for_each_entry_safe(&f2fs_stat_list)
 list_del(&si->stat_list);
 mutex_lock(&si->stat_lock);
 si->sbi = NULL;
 mutex_unlock(&si->stat_lock);
 kfree(sbi->stat_info);
} 				 mutex_lock(&si->stat_lock) <- si is gone.
				 ...
				}

Solution with a global lock: f2fs_stat_mutex:
Thread A			Thread B
umount f2fs 			cat f2fs/status

f2fs_destroy_stats() {		stat_show() {
 mutex_lock(&f2fs_stat_mutex);
 list_del(&si->stat_list);
 mutex_unlock(&f2fs_stat_mutex);
 kfree(sbi->stat_info);		 mutex_lock(&f2fs_stat_mutex);
}				 list_for_each_entry_safe(&f2fs_stat_list)
				 ...
				 mutex_unlock(&f2fs_stat_mutex);
				}
