    scsi, block: fix duplicate bdi name registration crashes · 0dba1314
    Dan Williams authored
    Warnings of the following form occur because scsi reuses a devt number
    while the block layer still has it referenced as the name of the bdi
    [1]:

    This is a brute-force fix to pass the devt release information from
    sd_probe() to the locations where we register the bdi,
    device_add_disk(), and unregister the bdi, blk_cleanup_queue().
    
    Thanks to Omar for the quick reproducer script [2]. This patch survives
    where an unmodified kernel fails in a few seconds.
