ipc: Convert mqueue fs to fs_context
Convert the mqueue filesystem to use the filesystem context stuff. Notes: (1) The relevant ipc namespace is selected in when the context is initialised (and it defaults to the current task's ipc namespace). The caller can override this before calling vfs_get_tree(). (2) Rather than simply calling kern_mount_data(), mq_init_ns() and mq_internal_mount() create a context, adjust it and then do the rest of the mount procedure. (3) The lazy mqueue mounting on creation of a new namespace is retained from a previous patch, but the avoidance of sget() if no superblock yet exists is reverted and the superblock is again keyed on the namespace pointer. Yes, there was a performance gain in not searching the superblock hash, but it's only paid once per ipc namespace - and only if someone uses mqueue within that namespace, so I'm not sure it's worth it, especially as calling sget() allows avoidance of recursion.
