Currently, audit_tree code uses mark->lock to protect against detaching of mark from an inode. In most places it however also uses mark->group->mark_mutex (as we need to atomically replace attached marks) and this provides protection against mark detaching as well. So just remove protection with mark->lock from audit tree code and replace it with mark->group->mark_mutex protection in all the places. It simplifies the code and gets rid of some ugly catches like calling fsnotify_add_mark_locked() with mark->lock held (which cannot sleep only because we hold a reference to another mark attached to the same inode).
