As mentioned before I don't think we should make this even more
crufty in the block layer.  See the series I just sent to move it int
dm.

It seems we had some misunderstanding, the problem I tried to fix here
should not just related to dm, but all the caller of
bd_link_disk_holder().

As far as I can tell the problem was just that patch 1 in my series blows
away the bd_holder_dir pointer in part0 on del_gendisk.  Each holder
actually holds a reference to the kobject, so the memory for it is
still valid, it's just that the pointer got cleared.  I'll send a v2
in a bit.

This is not the real case. In bd_link_disk_hoder(), bd_hodler_dir is
accessed first by add_symlink(), and then reference is grabed later.
The reference should be grabed before bd_holder_dir is accessed, like
what I try to do in patch 2.

Thanks,
Kuai
