nbd: do not allow two clients at the same time

Two nbd-clients at same time are bad idea, and cause WARN_ON from nbd in
2.6.28-rc7 from sysfs_add_one.  This simply prevents that from happening.

To reproduce:

 cat /dev/zero | head -c 10000000 > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs
 nbd-server 9100 -l /anyone.can.connect > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs &
 sleep 1
 nbd-client localhost 9100 /dev/nd0 &
 nbd-client localhost 9100 /dev/nd0 &
