[PATCH 1/2] block: fs: bd_invalidated should be cleared in revalidate_disk

[MITSUNARI Shigeo]

rescan_partitions() and invalidate_partitions() in block/partition-generic.c
set bdev->bd_invalidated = 0 after calling check_disk_size_change().
But revalidate_disk() in fs/block_dev.c does not clear it.

If bdev->bd_invalidated = 1 then rescan_partitions() is called when
__blkdev_get() is called.
So if revalidate_disk() is once called, all buffer cache pages will be
cleared whenever the device is opened.

This patch fixes the bug.
I add bdev->bd_invalidated = 0; after calling check_disk_size_change().
