Patch series "remove Xen tmem leftovers".
Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks
are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series
against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes
cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap.
This patch (of 13):
The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver
in commit 814bbf49dc ("xen: remove tmem driver").

The variable ret is being initialized with a value that is never
read, it is being updated later on. The assignment is redundant and
can be removed.

GENHD_FL_BLOCK_EVENTS_ON_EXCL_WRITE is all about the event reporting
mechanism, so move it to the event_flags field.

disk->fops->owner is grabbed in blkdev_get_no_open() after the disk
kobject refcount is increased. This way can't make sure that
disk->fops->owner is still alive since del_gendisk() still can move
on if the kobject refcount of disk is grabbed by open() and
disk->fops->open() isn't called yet.
Fixes the issue by moving try_module_get() into blkdev_get_by_dev()
with ->open_mutex() held, then we can drain the in-progress open()
in del_gendisk(). Meantime new open() won't succeed because disk
becomes not alive.
This way is reasonable because blkdev_get_no_open() needn't to touch
disk->fops or defined callbacks.

Instead offer a new sync_blockdev_nowait helper for the !wait case.
This new helper is exported as it will grow modular callers in a bit.

We switched to directly use dev_t to get block device, lookup changed the
meaning of use, now we fix this conflicting comment.

There are tons of places where we need to get a request_queue only
having bdev, which turns into bdev->bd_disk->queue. There are probably a
hundred of such places considering inline helpers, and enough of them
are in hot paths.
Cache queue pointer in struct block_device and make use of it in
bdev_get_queue().

syzbot is reporting use-after-free read at bdev_free_inode() [1], for
kfree() from __alloc_disk_node() is called before bdev_free_inode()
(which is called after RCU grace period) reads bdev->bd_disk and calls
kfree(bdev->bd_disk).
Fix use-after-free read followed by double kfree() problem
by making sure that bdev->bd_disk is NULL when calling iput().
