[PATCH v4] virtio-blk: handle block_device_operations callbacks after hot unplug

A userspace process holding a file descriptor to a virtio_blk device can
still invoke block_device_operations after hot unplug.  This leads to a
use-after-free accessing vblk->vdev in virtblk_getgeo() when
ioctl(HDIO_GETGEO) is invoked:

A related problem is that virtblk_remove() leaks the vd_index_ida index
when something still holds a reference to vblk->disk during hot unplug.
This causes virtio-blk device names to be lost (vda, vdb, etc).

Fix these issues by protecting vblk->vdev with a mutex and reference
counting vblk so the vd_index_ida index can be removed in all cases.
