Fix the lack of locking around modifications of net->cells_dyn_ino by
taking net->cells_lock exclusively.  This also requires to cell to be
removed from net->cells_dyn_ino in afs_destroy_cell_work() rather than in
afs_cell_destroy() as the latter runs in RCU cleanup context and sleeping
locks cannot be taken there.

Fixes: 1d0b929fc070 ("afs: Change dynroot to create contents on demand")
