block: don't release queue's sysfs lock during switching elevator

Browse Source 
commit b89f625e28d44552083f43752f62d8621ded0a04 upstream.

cecf5d87ff20 ("block: split .sysfs_lock into two locks") starts to
release & acquire sysfs_lock before registering/un-registering elevator
queue during switching elevator for avoiding potential deadlock from
showing & storing 'queue/iosched' attributes and removing elevator's
kobject.

Turns out there isn't such deadlock because 'q->sysfs_lock' isn't
required in .show & .store of queue/iosched's attributes, and just
elevator's sysfs lock is acquired in elv_iosched_store() and
elv_iosched_show(). So it is safe to hold queue's sysfs lock when
registering/un-registering elevator queue.

The biggest issue is that commit cecf5d87ff20 assumes that concurrent
write on 'queue/scheduler' can't happen. However, this assumption isn't
true, because kernfs_fop_write() only guarantees that concurrent write
aren't called on the same open file, but the write could be from
different open on the file. So we can't release & re-acquire queue's
sysfs lock during switching elevator, otherwise use-after-free on
elevator could be triggered.

Fixes the issue by not releasing queue's sysfs lock during switching
elevator.
