Staging: comedi: fix mmap_count

commit df30b21cb0eed5ba8a8e0cdfeebc66ba8cde821d upstream.

In comedi_fops, mmap_count is decremented at comedi_vm_ops->close but
it is not incremented at comedi_vm_ops->open. This may result in a negative
counter.  The patch introduces the open method to keep the counter
consistent.

The bug was triggerd by this sample code:

        mmap(0, ...., comedi_fd);
        fork();
        exit(0);
