Revert fab7772bfb ("nvme-multipath: revalidate nvme_ns_head gendisk
in nvme_validate_ns")
When adding a new namespace to the head disk (via nvme_mpath_set_live)
we will see partition scan which triggers I/O on the mpath device node.
This process will usually be triggered from the scan_work which holds
the scan_lock. If I/O blocks (if we got ana change currently have only
available paths but none are accessible) this can deadlock on the head
disk bd_mutex as both partition scan I/O takes it, and head disk revalidation
takes it to check for resize (also triggered from scan_work on a different
path). See trace [1].
The mpath disk revalidation was originally added to detect online disk
size change, but this is no longer needed since commit cb224c3af4
("nvme: Convert to use set_capacity_revalidate_and_notify") which already
updates resize info without unnecessarily revalidating the disk (the
mpath disk doesn't even implement .revalidate_disk fop).
