Linus Torvalds a32e236eb9 Partially revert "block: fail op_is_write() requests to read-only partitions"
It turns out that commit 721c7fc701 ("block: fail op_is_write()
requests to read-only partitions"), while obviously correct, causes
problems for some older lvm2 installations.

The reason is that the lvm snapshotting will continue to write to the
snapshow COW volume, even after the volume has been marked read-only.
End result: snapshot failure.

This has actually been fixed in newer version of the lvm2 tool, but the
old tools still exist, and the breakage was reported both in the kernel
bugzilla and in the Debian bugzilla:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200439
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900442

The lvm2 fix is here

  https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=a6fdb9d9d70f51c49ad11a87ab4243344e6701a3

but until everybody has updated to recent versions, we'll have to weaken
the "never write to read-only partitions" check.  It now allows the
write to happen, but causes a warning, something like this:

Note that this is a "revert" in behavior only.  I'm leaving alone the
actual code cleanups in commit 721c7fc701, but letting the previously
uncaught request go through with a warning instead of stopping it.
