[PATCH] loop: Don't change loop device under exclusive opener

[Jan Kara]

Loop module allows calling LOOP_SET_FD while there are other openers of
the loop device. Even exclusive ones. This can lead to weird
consequences such as kernel deadlocks like:

mount_bdev()				lo_ioctl()
  udf_fill_super()
    udf_load_vrs()
      sb_set_blocksize() - sets desired block size B
      udf_tread()
        sb_bread()
          __bread_gfp(bdev, block, B)
					  loop_set_fd()
					    set_blocksize()
            - now __getblk_slow() indefinitely loops because B != bdev
              block size

Fix the problem by disallowing LOOP_SET_FD ioctl when there are
exclusive openers of a loop device.

[Deliberately chosen not to CC stable as a user with priviledges to
trigger this race has other means of taking the system down and this
has a potential of breaking some weird userspace setup]
