Nice try, sport ... you qualify just behind Dan in the "not my problem"
olympic hurdles event.  I'm annoyed because there's no indication in
the log that the driver add behaviour is radically altered, so I've
been staring at the wrong code for weeks.  However, the unbind/rebind
should work, so the real issue is that your bdi changes (or perhaps
something else in block) have induced a regression in the unbinding of
upper layer drivers.  If you're going to release the bdi in
del_gendisk, you have to have some mechanism for re-acquiring it on re
-probe (likely with the same name) otherwise rebind is broken for every
block driver.

The fact that the second rebind tried with a different name indicates
that sd_devt_release wasn't called, so some vestige of the devt remains
on the subsequent rebind.  Here's the problem: the queue belongs to
SCSI (the lower layer), so it's not going to change because it doesn't
see the release.  The gendisk and its allied stuff belongs to sd so it
gets freed and re-created for the same queue.  Something in block is
very confused when this happens.
