Brian Behlendorf 9ec630ff2c Fix zvol_open() lock inversion
When restructuring the zvol_open() logic for the Linux 5.13 kernel
a lock inversion was accidentally introduced.  In the updated code
the spa_namespace_lock is now taken before the zv_suspend_lock
allowing the following scenario to occur:

    down_read <=== waiting for zv_suspend_lock
    zvol_open <=== holds spa_namespace_lock
    __blkdev_get
    blkdev_get_by_dev
    blkdev_open
    ...

     mutex_lock <== waiting for spa_namespace_lock
     spa_open_common
     spa_open
     dsl_pool_hold
     dmu_objset_hold_flags
     dmu_objset_hold
     dsl_prop_get
     dsl_prop_get_integer
     zvol_create_minor
     dmu_recv_end
     zfs_ioc_recv_impl <=== holds zv_suspend_lock via zvol_suspend()
     zfs_ioc_recv
     ...

This commit resolves the issue by moving the acquisition of the
spa_namespace_lock back to after the zv_suspend_lock which restores
the original ordering.

Additionally, as part of this change the error exit paths were
simplified where possible.
