Discarding blocks and buffers under a mounted filesystem is hardly
anything admin wants to do. Usually it will confuse the filesystem and
sometimes the loss of buffer_head state (including b_private field) can
even cause crashes like:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
PGD 0 P4D 0
Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP PTI
CPU: 4 PID: 203778 Comm: jbd2/dm-3-8 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G O --------- - - 4.18.0-147.5.0.5.h126.eulerosv2r9.x86_64 #1
Hardware name: Huawei RH2288H V3/BC11HGSA0, BIOS 1.57 08/11/2015
RIP: 0010:jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head+0x1b/0x40 [jbd2]

So if we don't have block device open with O_EXCL already, claim the
block device while we truncate buffer cache. This makes sure any
exclusive block device user (such as filesystem) cannot operate on the
device while we are discarding buffer cache.
