Jeff Mahoney f32c10b099 [PATCH] dm: change minor_lock to spinlock ...

While removing a device, another another thread might attempt to resurrect it.

This patch replaces the _minor_lock mutex with a spinlock and uses
atomic_dec_and_lock() to serialize reference counting in dm_put().

[akpm: too late for 2.6.17 - suitable for 2.6.17.x after it has settled]
