sysfs: Fix locking and factor out sysfs_sd_setattr

Browse Source 
Cleanly separate the work that is specific to setting the
attributes of a sysfs_dirent from what is needed to update
the attributes of a vfs inode.

Additionally grab the sysfs_mutex to keep any nasties from
surprising us when updating the sysfs_dirent.
