Subject: fs/block_dev: always invalidate cleancache in invalidate_bdev()
From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a5f6a6a9c72eac38a7fadd1a038532bc8516337c upstream.
invalidate_bdev() calls cleancache_invalidate_inode() iff ->nrpages != 0
which doen't make any sense.
Make sure that invalidate_bdev() always calls cleancache_invalidate_inode()
regardless of mapping->nrpages value.
Fixes: c515e1fd361c ("mm/fs: add hooks to support cleancache")
