umount: avoid racy block-size set
Setting the block size back to the original blocksize at umount time is unnecessary, and can cause buffer errors and infinite loops in __getblk_slow, and possibly other problems. Just getting bdev_lock instead causes other issues, namely AB-BA deadlocks with /proc/meminfo etc. Just drop it, and replace with a "sync_blockdev()" to cause a flush (which was a side effect of changing the blocksize before).
