Waiting for I/O completion with disk->open_mutex held has possibility of deadlock. Since disk->open_mutex => lo->lo_mutex dependency is recorded by lo_open(), and blk_mq_freeze_queue() by e.g. loop_set_status() waits for I/O completion with lo->lo_mutex held, from locking dependency chain perspective waiting for I/O completion with disk->open_mutex held still remains. Introduce loop_delete_spinlock dedicated for protecting lo->lo_state versus lo->lo_refcnt race in lo_open() and loop_remove_control().
