3.2.64-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Keith Busch <keith.busch@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 2da78092dda13f1efd26edbbf99a567776913750 upstream.
Releases the dev_t minor when all references are closed to prevent
another device from acquiring the same major/minor.
Since the partition's release may be invoked from call_rcu's soft-irq
context, the ext_dev_idr's mutex had to be replaced with a spinlock so
as not so sleep.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
- Adjust filename
- idr insertion API is different, and blk_alloc_devt() is preallocating
a node in a different way]
