Subject: kmemleak: Do not acquire scan_mutex in kmemleak_open()

Initially, the scan_mutex was acquired in kmemleak_open() and released
in kmemleak_release() (corresponding to /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
operations). This was causing some lockdep reports when the file was
closed from a different task than the one opening it. This patch moves
the scan_mutex acquiring in kmemleak_write() or kmemleak_seq_start()
with releasing in kmemleak_seq_stop().
