[PATCH] block: don't set GD_NEED_PART_SCAN if scan partition failed

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently if disk_scan_partitions() failed, GD_NEED_PART_SCAN will still
set, and partition scan will be proceed again when blkdev_get_by_dev()
is called. However, this will cause a problem that re-assemble partitioned
raid device will creat partition for underlying disk.

Test procedure:

mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l 1 -n 2 /dev/sda /dev/sdb -e 1.0
sgdisk -n 0:0:+100MiB /dev/md0
blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sda
blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb
mdadm -S /dev/md0
mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sda /dev/sdb

Test result: underlying disk partition and raid partition can be
observed at the same time

Note that this can still happen in come corner cases that
GD_NEED_PART_SCAN can be set for underlying disk while re-assemble raid
device.
