Can we use the opportunity to come up with better names? blkdev_get_* was always a rather horrible naming convention for something that ends up calling into ->open. What about: struct bdev_handle *bdev_open_by_dev(dev_t dev, blk_mode_t mode, void *holder, const struct blk_holder_ops *hops); struct bdev_handle *bdev_open_by_path(dev_t dev, blk_mode_t mode, void *holder, const struct blk_holder_ops *hops); void bdev_release(struct bdev_handle *handle); ?
