loop: fix deadlock when sysfs and LOOP_CLR_FD race against each other

LOOP_CLR_FD takes lo->lo_ctl_mutex and tries to remove the loop sysfs
files. Sysfs calls show() and waits for lo->lo_ctl_mutex. LOOP_CLR_FD
waits for show() to finish to remove the sysfs file.

    lo_ioctl+0x223/0x7a0 [loop]

Instead of taking the lo_ctl_mutex from sysfs code, take the inner
lo->lo_lock, to protect the access to the backing_file data.

Thanks to Tejun for help debugging and finding a solution.
