The uevent() callback in struct device_type should not be modifying the
device that is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the
function signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use
this callback.

<title>block: don't add partitions if GD_SUPPRESS_PART_SCAN is set</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit b9684a71fca7 ("block, loop: support partitions without scanning")
adds GD_SUPPRESS_PART_SCAN for replacing part function of
GENHD_FL_NO_PART. But looks blk_add_partitions() is missed, since
loop doesn't want to add partitions if GENHD_FL_NO_PART was set.
And it causes regression on libblockdev (as called from udisks) which
operates with the LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN.

Fixes the issue by not adding partitions if GD_SUPPRESS_PART_SCAN is
set.

The bare use of '9' confuses some people.  We also don't need this cast,
since the compiler does exactly that cast for us.

That rather complicated expression is just trying to find the offset
