Except that the version I posted if of course completly broken as my
testing rig told me.  This is the version that actually works:

Subject: block: always set FMODE_NOWAIT

Block devices are the only file_operations that do not set FMODE_NOWAIT
unconditionall in ->open and thus get in the way of a planned cleanup to
move this flags into a static field in file_operations.   Switch to
always set FMODE_NOWAIT and just return -EAGAIN if it isn't actually
supported.  This just affects minor ->submit_bio based drivers as all
blk-mq drivers and the important remappers (dm, md, nvme-multipath)
support nowait I/O.
