[PATCH stable 5.4.y/4.19.y] block: unhash blkdev part inode when the part is deleted

[Ming Lei]

v5.11 changes the blkdev lookup mechanism completely since commit
22ae8ce8b892 ("block: simplify bdev/disk lookup in blkdev_get"),
and small part of the change is to unhash part bdev inode when
deleting partition. Turns out this kind of change does fix one
nasty issue in case of BLOCK_EXT_MAJOR:

1) when one partition is deleted & closed, disk_put_part() is always
called before bdput(bdev), see blkdev_put(); so the part's devt can
be freed & re-used before the inode is dropped

2) then new partition with same devt can be created just before the
inode in 1) is dropped, then the old inode/bdev structurein 1) is
re-used for this new partition, this way causes use-after-free and
kernel panic.

It isn't possible to backport the whole big patchset of "merge struct
block_device and struct hd_struct v4" for addressing this issue.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20201128161510.347752-1-hch@lst.de/

So fixes it by unhashing part bdev in delete_partition(), and this way
is actually aligned with v5.11+'s behavior.

Backported from the following 5.10.y commit:

5f2f77560591 ("block: unhash blkdev part inode when the part is deleted")
