sysfs: Take sysfs_mutex when fetching the root inode.
sysfs_get_inode ultimately calls sysfs_count_nlink when the a directory inode is fectched. sysfs_count_nlink needs to be called under the sysfs_mutex to guard against the unlikely but possible scenario that the root directory is changing as we are counting the number entries in it, and just in general to be consistent.
