The implementation of bdev holder operations such as fs_bdev_mark_dead()
and fs_bdev_sync() grab sb->s_umount semaphore under
bdev->bd_holder_lock. This is problematic because it leads to
disk->open_mutex -> sb->s_umount lock ordering which is counterintuitive
(usually we grab higher level (e.g. filesystem) locks first and lower
level (e.g. block layer) locks later) and indeed makes lockdep complain
about possible locking cycles whenever we open a block device while
holding sb->s_umount semaphore. Implement a function
bdev_super_lock_shared() which safely transitions from holding
bdev->bd_holder_lock to holding sb->s_umount on alive superblock without
introducing the problematic lock dependency. We use this function
fs_bdev_sync() and fs_bdev_mark_dead().

Commit a33df75c63 ("block: use an xarray for disk->part_tbl") remove
disk_expand_part_tbl() in add_partition(), which means all kinds of
devices will support extended dynamic `dev_t`.
However, some devices with GENHD_FL_NO_PART are not expected to add or
resize partition.
Fix this by adding check of GENHD_FL_NO_PART before add or resize
partition.

BLKFLSBUF is a historic ioctl that is called on a file handle to a
block device and syncs either the file system mounted on that block
device if there is one, or otherwise the just the data on the block
device.
Replace the get_super based syncing with a holder operation to remove
the last usage of get_super, and to also support syncing the file system
if the block device is not the main block device stored in s_dev.

The only overlap between the block open flags mapped into the fmode_t and
other uses of fmode_t are FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE. Define a new
blk_mode_t instead for use in blkdev_get_by_{dev,path}, ->open and
->ioctl and stop abusing fmode_t.

The current interface for exclusive opens is rather confusing as it
requires both the FMODE_EXCL flag and a holder. Remove the need to pass
FMODE_EXCL and just key off the exclusive open off a non-NULL holder.
For blkdev_put this requires adding the holder argument, which provides
better debug checking that only the holder actually releases the hold,
but at the same time allows removing the now superfluous mode argument.

Add a new blk_holder_ops structure, which is passed to blkdev_get_by_* and
installed in the block_device for exclusive claims. It will be used to
allow the block layer to call back into the user of the block device for
thing like notification of a removed device or a device resize.

As explained in commit 36369f46e9 ("block: Do not reread partition table
on exclusively open device"), reread partition on the device that is
exclusively opened by someone else is problematic.
This patch will make sure partition scan will only be proceed if current
thread open the device exclusively, or the device is not opened
exclusively, and in the later case, other scanners and exclusive openers
will be blocked temporarily until partition scan is done.

Since commit 10c70d95c0 ("block: remove the bd_openers checks in
blk_drop_partitions") we allow rereading of partition table although
there are users of the block device. This has an undesirable consequence
that e.g. if sda and sdb are assembled to a RAID1 device md0 with
partitions, BLKRRPART ioctl on sda will rescan partition table and
create sda1 device. This partition device under a raid device confuses
some programs (such as libstorage-ng used for initial partitioning for
distribution installation) leading to failures.
Fix the problem refusing to rescan partitions if there is another user
that has the block device exclusively open.

When BLKZEROOUT ioctl and data read race, the data read leaves stale
page cache. To avoid the stale page cache, hold invalidate_lock of the
block device file mapping. The stale page cache is observed when
blktests test case block/009 is modified to call "blkdiscard -z" command
and repeated hundreds of times.
This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.15.y.
Rework is required for older stable kernels.
