As an aritfact of how gendisk lookup used to work in earlier kernels,
GENHD_FL_UP is only cleared very late in del_gendisk, and instead a
global lock is used to prevent opens from actually succeeding. Clear
the flag, and remove the bdev inode from the inode hash earlier to
ensure lookups fail from the very beginning of del_gendisk, and remove
the now not needed bdev_lookup_sem.
