4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Bradley Bolen <bradleybo...@gmail.com>
commit 7f29ae9f977bcdc3654e68bc36d170223c52fd48 upstream.
This fixes a race with idr_alloc where gd->first_minor can be set to the
same value for two simultaneous calls to ubiblock_create. Each instance
calls device_add_disk with the same first_minor. device_add_disk calls
bdi_register_owner which generates several warnings.

However, device_add_disk does not error out when bdi_register_owner
returns an error. Control continues until reaching blk_register_queue.
It then BUGs.

Locking idr_alloc/idr_remove removes the race and keeps gd->first_minor
unique.
