s390/dasd: Fix locking issue when changing EER attribute
The reference to a device in question may get lost when the extended error reporting (EER) attribute is being enabled/disabled while the device is set offline at the same time. This is due to missing refcounting and incorrect locking. Fix this by the following: - In dasd_eer_store() get the device directly and handle the refcount accordingly. - Move the lock in dasd_eer_enable() up so we can ensure safe processing. - Check if the device is being set offline and return with -EBUSY if so. - While at it, change the return code from -EPERM to -EMEDIUMTYPE as suggested by a FIXME, since that is what we're actually checking.
