fs: use a for loop when locking a mount

Currently, lock_mount() uses a goto to retry the lookup until it
succeeded in acquiring the namespace_lock() preventing the top mount
from being overmounted. While that's perfectly fine we want to lookup
the mountpoint on the parent of the top mount in later patches. So adapt
the code to make this easier to implement. Also, the for loop is
arguably a little cleaner and makes the code easier to follow. No
functional changes intended.
