exfat: release s_lock before calling dir_emit()

There is a potential deadlock reported by syzbot as below:

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.4.0-next-20230707-syzkaller #0 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor330/5073 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: mmap_read_lock_killable include/linux/mmap_lock.h:151 [inline]
ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: get_mmap_lock_carefully mm/memory.c:5293 [inline]
ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: lock_mm_and_find_vma+0x369/0x510 mm/memory.c:5344
but task is already holding lock:
ffff888019f760e0 (&sbi->s_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: exfat_iterate+0x117/0xb50 fs/exfat/dir.c:232

which lock already depends on the new lock.

Chain exists of:
  &mm->mmap_lock --> mapping.invalidate_lock#3 --> &sbi->s_lock

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&sbi->s_lock);
                               lock(mapping.invalidate_lock#3);
                               lock(&sbi->s_lock);
  rlock(&mm->mmap_lock);

Let's try to avoid above potential deadlock condition by moving dir_emit*()
out of sbi->s_lock coverage.

exFAT filesystem

This is the exfat filesystem for support from the linux 4.1 kernel to the latest kernel.

Installing as a stand-alone module

Install prerequisite package for Fedora, RHEL:

	yum install kernel-devel-$(uname -r)

Build step:

	make
	sudo make install

To load the driver manually, run this as root:

	modprobe exfat

Installing as a part of the kernel

  1. Let's take [linux] as the path to your kernel source dir.
	cd [linux]
	cp -ar exfat [linux]/fs/
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Kconfig
	source "fs/fat/Kconfig"
	+source "fs/exfat/Kconfig"
	source "fs/ntfs/Kconfig"
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Makefile
	obj-$(CONFIG_FAT_FS)          += fat/
	+obj-$(CONFIG_EXFAT_FS)       += exfat/
	obj-$(CONFIG_BFS_FS)          += bfs/
  1. make menuconfig and set exfat
	File systems  --->
		DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems  --->
			<M> exFAT filesystem support
			(utf8) Default iocharset for exFAT
