Jan Kara 2c5555983b bcache: Fix bcache device claiming 
Commit 2736e8eeb0 ("block: use the holder as indication for exclusive
opens") introduced a change that blkdev_put() has to get exclusive
holder of the bdev as an argument. However it overlooked that
register_bdev() and register_cache() overwrite the bdev->bd_holder field
in the block device to point to the real owning object which was not
available at the time we called blkdev_get_by_path(). Messing with bdev
internals like this is a layering violation and it also causes
blkdev_put() to issue warning about mismatching holders.

Fix bcache to reopen the block device with appropriate holder once it is
available which also restores the behavior that multiple bcache caches
cannot claim the same device which was broken by commit 29499ab060
("bcache: don't pass a stack address to blkdev_get_by_path").

Fixes: 2736e8eeb0 ("block: use the holder as indication for exclusive opens")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
