when mounting an ISO filesystem sometimes (very rarely)
the system hangs because of a race condition between two tasks.

This task was trying to mount the cdrom. It allocated and configured a
super_block struct and owned the write-lock for the super_block->s_umount
rwsem. While exclusively owning the s_umount lock, it called
sr_block_ioctl and waited to acquire the global sr_mutex lock.

This task tried to open the cdrom device, the sr_block_open function
acquired the global sr_mutex lock. The call to check_disk_change()
then saw an event flag indicating a possible media change and tried
to flush any cached data for the device.
As part of the flush, it tried to acquire the super_block->s_umount
lock associated with the cdrom device.
This was the same super_block as created and locked by the previous task.
The first task acquires the s_umount lock and then the sr_mutex_lock;
the second task acquires the sr_mutex_lock and then the s_umount lock.
This patch fixes the issue by moving check_disk_change() out of
cdrom_open() and let the caller take care of it.
