Series [01/78] block: remove the call to __invalidate_device in check_disk_size_change | expand

Commit Message

Christoph Hellwig Nov. 16, 2020, 2:57 p.m. UTC 
Switch from using blk_register_region to the probe callback passed to
__register_blkdev to disable the request_module call for an unclaimed
dev_t in the SD majors.
