[PATCH] loop: add missing bd_abort_claiming in loop_set_status

[Tetsuo Handa]

Commit 08e136ebd193 ("loop: don't change loop device under exclusive
opener in loop_set_status") forgot to call bd_abort_claiming() when
mutex_lock_killable() failed.

Since that commit for some reason calls loop_reread_partitions() when
bd_prepare_to_claim() failed, this patch calls loop_reread_partitions()
when mutex_lock_killable() failed after bd_abort_claiming()...
Maybe we should return as soon as possible?
