Subject: [PATCH v2] cuse: do not register multiple devices with the same name

We do not check whether we already registered a CUSE device with a given
name so we might end up with two devices with the same name. Sysfs will
then complain as it cannot create suitable directories.

This patch makes the init-command fail if there is already a device with
the given name. To avoid race-conditions, we protect the whole
registration with a mutex now.

Following the sysfs warnings when registering two devices with the same
name:

Hi again

I changed the spinlock to a mutex now. This should make it more readable as
Tejun suggested.

Thanks
David
