Subject[RESEND PATCH 1/3] mtd:mtdblock: remove the needless mtdblks_lock
The global lock mtdblks_lock was used to protect the original mtdblks
array to avoid race conditions. As the mtdblks array was already gone,
but the mtdblks_lock is left, and it causes latency when open/release dev.
So we need to remove it here.
