[PATCH] loop: fix double BKL lock

[Arnd Bergmann]

Patch 6e9624b8c "block: push down BKL into .open and .release"
accidentally introduced an extra lock_kernel() instead of
unlock_kernel(). Because of the recursiveness and
release-while-sleeping properties of the BKL, this did
not do much harm, but is incorrect nonetheless.
