v6: - Add a second patch to rename the bd_fsfreeze_mutex to bd_fsfreeze_blktrace_mutex.
v5: - Overload the bd_fsfreeze_mutex in block_device structure for blktrace protection.
v4: - Use blktrace_mutex in blk_trace_ioctl() as well.
v3: - Use a global blktrace_mutex to serialize sysfs attribute accesses instead of the bd_mutex.
v2: - Use READ_ONCE() and smp_store_mb() to read and write bd_deleting. - Check for signal in the mutex_trylock loops. - Use usleep() instead of schedule() for RT tasks.
This patchset fixes a potential blktrace deadlock problem between block device deletion and sysfs operations.
