In current code loop_add() is called from loop_probe(),
loop_control_ioctl(), and loop_init(). Each of these functions hold
global mutex lock loop_ctrl_mutex with two variants mutex_lock() and
mutex_lock_killable().

Add lockdep_asset_lock_held() in loop_add() to make sure it will
generate an appropriate error message in case of misuse.
