f2fs: fix to avoid potential deadlock

There is a potential deadlock reported by syzbot as below:

F2FS-fs (loop2): invalid crc value
F2FS-fs (loop2): Found nat_bits in checkpoint
F2FS-fs (loop2): Mounted with checkpoint version = 48b305e4
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.1.0-rc8-syzkaller-33330-ga5541c0811a0 #0 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor.2/32123 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff0000c0e1a608 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: __might_fault+0x54/0xb4 mm/memory.c:5644

but task is already holding lock:
ffff0001317c6088 (&sbi->sb_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: f2fs_down_write fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:2205 [inline]
ffff0001317c6088 (&sbi->sb_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: f2fs_ioc_get_encryption_pwsalt fs/f2fs/file.c:2334 [inline]
ffff0001317c6088 (&sbi->sb_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: __f2fs_ioctl+0x1370/0x3318 fs/f2fs/file.c:4151

which lock already depends on the new lock.

Chain exists of:
  &mm->mmap_lock --> &nm_i->nat_tree_lock --> &sbi->sb_lock

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&sbi->sb_lock);
                               lock(&nm_i->nat_tree_lock);
                               lock(&sbi->sb_lock);
  lock(&mm->mmap_lock);

Let's try to avoid above deadlock condition by moving __might_fault()
out of sbi->sb_lock coverage.
