[PATCH v1 1/2] mtd: m25p80: lock module while used

[Sandeep Jain]

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vladimir_zapolskiy@xxxxxxxxxx>

The change controls module users counter, which prevents to get
accidental oops on module unload while it is in use by mtd subsystem:

% dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/dev/null &
% rmmod m25p80

Removing MTD device #0 (spi32766.0) with use count 1
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 7f4fb7f8
pgd = bd094000
[7f4fb7f8] *pgd=4cb66811, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 80000007 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
