Somebody please review, need this regression fixed in stable!
> Some devices come online in write protected state and switch to
> read-write once they are ready to process I/O requests. These devices
> broke with commit 20bd1d026aac ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when
> re-reading partition") because we had no way to distinguish between a
> user decision to set a block_device read-only and the actual hardware
> device being write-protected.
>
> Because partitions are dropped and recreated on revalidate we are
> unable to persist any user-provided policy in hd_struct. Introduce a
> bitmap in struct gendisk to track the user configuration. This bitmap
> is updated when BLKROSET is called on a given disk or partition.
>
> A helper function, get_user_ro(), is provided to determine whether the
> ioctl has forced read-only state for a given block device. This helper
> is used by set_disk_ro() and add_partition() to ensure that both
> existing and newly created partitions will get the correct state.
>
> - If BLKROSET sets a whole disk device read-only, all partitions will
> now end up in a read-only state.
>
> - If BLKROSET sets a given partition read-only, that partition will
> remain read-only post revalidate.
>
> - Otherwise both the whole disk device and any partitions will
> reflect the write protect state of the underlying device.
>
> Since nobody knows what "policy" means, rename the field to
> "read_only" for clarity.
