nbd: fix race in ioctl

It seems fairly obvious that device_create_file() is not being protected
from being run concurrently on the same nbd.

Quentin found the following relevant commits:

1a2ad211 nbd: add locking to nbd_ioctl
90b8f282 [PATCH] end of methods switch: remove the old ones
d4430d62 [PATCH] beginning of methods conversion
08f85851 [PATCH] move block_device_operations to blkdev.h

It would seem that the race was introduced in the process of moving nbd
from BKL to unlocked ioctls.

By setting nbd->task_recv while the mutex is held, we can prevent other
processes from running concurrently (since nbd->task_recv is also checked
while the mutex is held).
