md: switch to ->check_events for media change notifications
[ Upstream commit a564e23f0f99759f453dbefcb9160dec6d99df96 ]
md is the last driver using the legacy media_changed method. Switch
it over to (not so) new ->clear_events approach, which also removes the
need for the ->revalidate_disk method.
