Previously, there was a bug where user could see stale buffer cache (e.g, 512B) attached in the 4KB-sized pager cache, when the block size was changed from 512B to 4KB. That was fixed by: commit 5db470e229e2 ("loop: drop caches if offset or block_size are changed")
But, there were some regression reports saying the fix returns EAGAIN easily. So, this patch removes previously added EAGAIN condition, nrpages != 0.
Instead, it changes the flow like this: - sync_blockdev() - blk_mq_freeze_queue() : change the loop configuration - blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() - sync_blockdev() - invalidate_bdev()
After invalidating the buffer cache, we must see the full valid 4KB page.
Additional concern came from Bart in which we can lose some data when changing the lo_offset. In that case, this patch adds: - sync_blockdev() - blk_set_queue_dying - blk_mq_freeze_queue() : change the loop configuration - blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() - blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_DYING); - sync_blockdev() - invalidate_bdev()
