Having separate implementations of blkdev_ioctl() often leads to these
getting out of sync, despite the comment at the top.

Since most of the ioctl commands are compatible, and we try very hard
not to add any new incompatible ones, move all the common bits into a
shared function and leave only the ones that are historically different
in separate functions for native/compat mode.

To deal with the compat_ptr() conversion, pass both the integer
argument and the pointer argument into the new blkdev_common_ioctl()
and make sure to always use the correct one of these.

blkdev_ioctl() is now only kept as a separate exported interfact
for drivers/char/raw.c, which lacks a compat_ioctl variant.
We should probably either move raw.c to staging if there are no
more users, or export blkdev_compat_ioctl() as well.

There is no need to go through a compat_alloc_user_space()
copy any more, just wrap the function in a small helper that
works the same way for native and compat mode.

Having both in the same file allows a number of simplifications
to the compat path, and makes it more likely that changes to
the native path get applied to the compat version as well.

A lot of block drivers need only a trivial .compat_ioctl callback.

Add a helper function that can be set as the callback pointer
to only convert the argument using the compat_ptr() conversion
and otherwise assume all input and output data is compatible,
or handled using in_compat_syscall() checks.

This mirrors the compat_ptr_ioctl() helper function used in
character devices.

Simplify the arguments to blkdev_nr_zones by passing a gendisk instead
of the block_device and capacity.  This also removes the need for
__blkdev_nr_zones as all callers are outside the fast path and can
deal with the additional branch.

In general drivers should never mess with partition tables directly.
Unfortunately s390 and loop do for somewhat historic reasons, but they
can use bdev_disk_changed directly instead when we export it as they
satisfy the sanity checks we have in __blkdev_reread_part.

We still have to set the capacity to 0 if invalidating or call
revalidate_disk if not even if the disk has no partitions.  Fix
that by merging rescan_partitions into bdev_disk_changed and just
stubbing out blk_add_partitions and blk_drop_partitions for
non-partitioned devices.
