mmc_block_open() increments md->usage although it returns with -EROFS when
default mounting a MMC/SD card with write protect switch on.  This
reference counting bug prevents /dev/mmcblkX from being released on card
removal, and situation worsen with reinsertion until the minor number
range runs out.
