mtd: mtd_blkdevs: don't increase 'open' count on error path

Browse Source 
Some error paths in mtd_blkdevs were fixed in the following commit:

    commit 94735ec404
    mtd: mtd_blkdevs: fix error path in blktrans_open

But on these error paths, the block device's `dev->open' count is
already incremented before we check for errors. This meant that, while
the error path was handled correctly on the first time through
blktrans_open(), the device is erroneously considered already open on
the second time through.

This problem can be seen, for instance, when a UBI volume is
simultaneously mounted as a UBIFS partition and read through its
corresponding gluebi mtdblockX device. This results in blktrans_open()
passing its error checks (with `dev->open > 0') without actually having
a handle on the device. Here's a summarized log of the actions and
results with nandsim:

    # modprobe nandsim
    # modprobe mtdblock
    # modprobe gluebi
    # modprobe ubifs
    # ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 0
    ...
    # ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N test -s 16MiB
    ...
    # mount -t ubifs ubi0:test /mnt
    # ls /dev/mtdblock*
    /dev/mtdblock0  /dev/mtdblock1
    # cat /dev/mtdblock1 > /dev/null
    cat: can't open '/dev/mtdblock4': Device or resource busy
    # cat /dev/mtdblock1 > /dev/null
