mm: fix refcounting in swapon

Grab a reference to bdev before calling blkdev_get(), which expects
the refcount to be already incremented and either returns success or
decrements the refcount and returns an error.

The bug was introduced by e525fd89 (block: make blkdev_get/put()
handle exclusive access), which didn't take into account this behavior
of blkdev_get().
