[PATCH v2 2/6] block: add ioctl to read the disk sequence number

[Matteo Croce <mcroce@linux.microsoft.com>]

From: Matteo Croce <mcroce@microsoft.com>

Add a new BLKGETDISKSEQ ioctl which retrieves the disk sequence number
from the genhd structure.

    # ./getdiskseq /dev/loop*
    /dev/loop0:     13
    /dev/loop0p1:   13
    /dev/loop0p2:   13
    /dev/loop0p3:   13
    /dev/loop1:     14
    /dev/loop1p1:   14
    /dev/loop1p2:   14
    /dev/loop2:     5
    /dev/loop3:     6
