commit 073db4a5 upstream.

On A MIPS 32-cores machine a BUG_ON was triggered because some acesses to
mtd->usecount were done without taking mtd_table_mutex.

Fixed by taking the mutex in blktrans_open and blktrans_release.

Note that this locking is already suggested in
include/linux/mtd/blktrans.h:

struct mtd_blktrans_ops {
...
	/* Called with mtd_table_mutex held; no race with add/remove */
	int (*open)(struct mtd_blktrans_dev *dev);
	void (*release)(struct mtd_blktrans_dev *dev);
...
};

But we weren't following it.
