ocfs2/lockdep: Move ip_xattr_sem out of ocfs2_xattr_get_nolock.
As the name shows, we shouldn't have any lock in
ocfs2_xattr_get_nolock. so lift ip_xattr_sem to the caller.
This should be safe for us since the only 2 callers are:
1. ocfs2_xattr_get which will lock the resources.
2. ocfs2_mknod which don't need this locking.
And this also resolves the following lockdep warning.

reflink/30027 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:
(&oi->ip_xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffffa0673b58>] ocfs2_reflink_ioctl+0x68b/0x1226 [ocfs2]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
