    [PATCH] (9/25) update_partition() · 897c924e
    Alexander Viro authored
    	new helper - update_partition(disk, partition_number); does the
    right thing wrt devfs and driverfs (un)registration of partition entries.
    BLKPG ioctls fixed - now they call that beast rather than calling only
    devfs side.  New helper - rescan_partitions(disk, bdev); does all work
    with wiping/rereading/etc. and fs/block_dev.c now uses it instead of
    check_partition().  The latter became static.
