block: use the passed in @bdev when claiming if partno is zero
6b4517a791
(block: implement bd_claiming and claiming block)
introduced claiming block to support O_EXCL blkdev opens properly.
bd_start_claiming() looks up the part 0 bdev and starts claiming
block. The function assumed that there is only one part 0 bdev and
always used bdget_disk(disk, 0) to look it up; unfortunately, this
isn't true for some drivers (floppy) which use multiple block devices
to denote different operating parameters for the same physical device.
There can be multiple part 0 bdev's for the same device number.
This incorrect assumption caused the wrong bdev to be used during
claiming leading to unbalanced bd_holders as reported in the following
bug.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28522
This patch updates bd_start_claiming() such that it uses the bdev
specified as argument if its partno is zero.
Note that this means that different bdev's can be used for the same
device and O_EXCL check can be effectively bypassed. It has always
been broken that way and floppy is fortunately on its way out. Leave
that breakage alone.
