    block: don't test for partition size in bdget_disk() and blk_lookup_devt() · 2bbedcb4
    Tejun Heo authored
    bdget_disk() and blk_lookup_devt() never cared whether the specified
    partition (or disk) is zero sized or not.  I got confused while
    converting those not to depend on consecutive minor numbers in commit
    5a6411b1178baf534aa9138052864dfa89d3eada and later when dev0 was added
    it broke callers which expected to get valid return for zero sized
    disk devices.
    
    So, they never needed nr_sects checks in the first place.  Kill them.
