rescan_partitions() and invalidate_partitions() in block/partition-generic.c set bdev->bd_invalidated = 0 after calling check_disk_size_change(). But revalidate_disk() in fs/block_dev.c does not clear it so I add bdev->bd_invalidated = 0; after calling check_disk_size_change(). If bdev->bd_invalidated = 1 then rescan_partitions() is called when __blkdev_get() is called. So if revalidate_disk() is once called, all buffer cache pages will be cleared every time when the device is opened. This patch fixes the bug.
