    cdrom: always check_disk_change() on open · bf2253a6
    Tejun Heo authored
    cdrom_open() called check_disk_change() after the rest of open path
    succeeded which leads to the following bizarre behavior.
    
    * After media change, if the device opened without O_NONBLOCK,
      open_for_data() naturally fails with -ENOMEDIA and
      check_disk_change() is never called.  The media is known to be gone
      and the open failure makes it obvious to the userland but device
      invalidation never happens.
    
    * But if the device is opened with O_NONBLOCK, all the checks are
      bypassed and cdrom_open() doesn't notice that the media is not there
      and check_disk_change() is called and invalidation happens.
    
    There's nothing to be gained by avoiding calling check_disk_change()
    on open failure.  Common cases end up calling check_disk_change()
    anyway.  All we get is inconsistent behavior.
    
    Fix it by moving check_disk_change() invocation to the top of
    cdrom_open() so that it always gets called regardless of how the rest
    of open proceeds.
