<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" />

According to above line,you should make sure that your css files is under location="/resources/" (resources folder).If they are present in some other folder make change location path.

And in spring-security.xml add below line so that for resources no security is required.

<http pattern="/resources/**" security="none"/> 

After that in jsp .

<link type="text/css" href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/resources/css/fontello.css"  rel="stylesheet">
