[PATCH] direct-io invalidation fix
clean_blockdev_aliases() is using the wrong thing to work out how many filesystem blocks should be invalidated. It invalidates too many, which can cause live fs metadata buffers to be invalidated when they are pending writeout. It's a filesystem-wrecker, although seems very hard to hit.
