Commit 1a721de8489f ("block: don't add or resize partition on the disk
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART") prevented all operations about partitions on disks
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART in blkpg_do_ioctl() since they are meaningless.
However, it changed error code in some scenarios. So move checking
GENHD_FL_NO_PART to bdev_add_partition() to eliminate impact.
