I wonder; wouldn't we miss a true size change here?

check_disk_size_change() will issue a kernel message (but no usevent) if
we have a real disk size change; if we fail to revalidate the disk an
uevent is issued, but no kernel message.

Can't we combine both by making check_disk_size_change() a bool function
and drop the call to 'get_capacity()', seeing that it's done in
check_disk_size_change() anyway?

Cheers,

Hannes
