block: fix scan partition for exclusively open device again
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As explained in commit 36369f4 ("block: Do not reread partition table
on exclusively open device"), reread partition on the device that is
exclusively opened by someone else is problematic.

This patch will make sure partition scan will only be proceed if current
thread open the device exclusively, or the device is not opened
exclusively, and in the later case, other scanners and exclusive openers
will be blocked temporarily until partition scan is done.

Fixes: 10c70d9 ("block: remove the bd_openers checks in blk_drop_partitions")
