[ 34/48] loopdev: fix a deadlock

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guo Chao <yan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 5370019dc2d2c2ff90e95d181468071362934f3a upstream.

bd_mutex and lo_ctl_mutex can be held in different order.

Path #1:

blkdev_open
 blkdev_get
  __blkdev_get (hold bd_mutex)
   lo_open (hold lo_ctl_mutex)

Path #2:

blkdev_ioctl
 lo_ioctl (hold lo_ctl_mutex)
  lo_set_capacity (hold bd_mutex)

Lockdep does not report it, because path #2 actually holds a subclass of
lo_ctl_mutex.  This subclass seems creep into the code by mistake.  The
patch author actually just mentioned it in the changelog, see commit
f028f3b2 ("loop: fix circular locking in loop_clr_fd()"), also see:

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123806169129727&w=2

Path #2 hold bd_mutex to call bd_set_size(), I've protected it
with i_mutex in a previous patch, so drop bd_mutex at this site.
