[ Upstream commit 1b1774998b2dec837a57d729d1a22e5eb2d6d206 ]

A simplification of get_unaligned() clashes with callers that pass
in a character pointer, causing a harmless warning like:

block/partitions/msdos.c: In function 'msdos_partition':
include/asm-generic/unaligned.h:13:22: warning: 'packed' attribute ignored for field of type 'u8' {aka 'unsigned char'} [-Wattributes]

Remove the SYS_IND() macro with the get_unaligned() call
and just use the -&gt;ind field directly.

All remaining callers of bdget() outside of fs/block_dev.c want to get a
reference to the struct block_device for a given struct hd_struct.  Add
a helper just for that and then mark bdget static.

mdadm relies on the fact that deleting an invalid partition returns
-ENXIO or -ENOTTY to detect if a block device is a partition or a

<title>block: fix locking for struct block_device size updates</title>

Two different callers use two different mutexes for updating the
block device size, which obviously doesn't help to actually protect
against concurrent updates from the different callers.  In addition
one of the locks, bd_mutex is rather prone to deadlocks with other
parts of the block stack that use it for high level synchronization.

Switch to using a new spinlock protecting just the size updates, as
that is all we need, and make sure everyone does the update through
the proper helper.

This fixes a bug reported with the nvme revalidating disks during a
hot removal operation, which can currently deadlock on bd_mutex.
