mm: dmapool: add/remove sysfs file outside of the pool lock lock

cat /sys/.../pools followed by removal the device leads to:

The problem is the lock order of pools_lock and kernfs_mutex in
dma_pool_destroy() vs show_pools() call path.

This patch breaks out the creation of the sysfs file outside of the
pools_lock mutex.  The newly added pools_reg_lock ensures that there is no
race of create vs destroy code path in terms whether or not the sysfs file
has to be deleted (and was it deleted before we try to create a new one)
and what to do if device_create_file() failed.
