4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Jeremy Cline <jeremy@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 20bd1d026aacc5399464f8328f305985c493cde3 ]
If the read-only flag is true on a SCSI disk, re-reading the partition
table sets the flag back to false.
To observe this bug, you can run:
1. blockdev --setro /dev/sda
2. blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sda
3. blockdev --getro /dev/sda
This commit reads the disk's old state and combines it with the device
disk-reported state rather than unconditionally marking it as RW.
