block: count BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES openers

The original changes in v6.8 do allow for a block device to be reopened
with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES provided the same holder is used as per
bdev_may_open(). I think this has a bug.

The first opener @f1 of that block device will set bdev->bd_writers to
-1. The second opener @f2 using the same holder will pass the check in
bdev_may_open() that bdev->bd_writers must not be greater than zero.

The first opener @f1 now closes the block device and in bdev_release()
will end up calling bdev_yield_write_access() which calls
bdev_writes_blocked() and sets bdev->bd_writers to 0 again.

Now @f2 holds a file to that block device which was opened with
exclusive write access but bdev->bd_writers has been reset to 0.

So now @f3 comes along and succeeds in opening the block device with
BLK_OPEN_WRITE betraying @f2's request to have exclusive write access.

This isn't a practical issue yet because afaict there's no codepath
inside the kernel that reopenes the same block device with
BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES but it will be if there is.

Fix this by counting the number of BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES openers. So
we only allow writes again once all BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES openers are
done.
