proc_setup_self() and proc_setup_thread_self() are only called from proc_fill_super() which is before the filesystem is "live". So there is no need to lock the root directory when adding "self" and "thread-self". This is clear from simple_fill_super() which provides similar functionality for other filesystems and does not lock anything. The locking is not harmful, except that it may be confusing to a reader. As part of an effort to centralise all locking for directories for name-based operations (prior to changing some locking rules), it is simplest to remove the locking here.
