initramfs: use scoped_with_init_fs() for rootfs unpacking

Browse Source 
Extract the initramfs unpacking code into a separate
unpack_initramfs() function and wrap its invocation from
do_populate_rootfs() with scoped_with_init_fs(). This ensures all
file operations during initramfs unpacking (including filp_open()
calls in do_name() and populate_initrd_image()) happen in init's
filesystem context.

Note that security_initramfs_populated() needs the scope as well since
it does use current->fs to derive the initramfs superblock.

do_populate_rootfs() ← async_schedule_domain() ← kworker (async
workqueue)

May also run synchronously from PID 1 in case async workqueue is
considered full. Overriding in that case is fine as well.
