Christoph Hellwig 560e20e4bf block: consolidate __invalidate_device and fsync_bdev
We currently have two interfaces that take a block_devices and the find
a mounted file systems to flush or invaldidate data on it.  Both are a
bit problematic because they only work for the "main" block devices
that is used as s_dev for the super_block, and because they don't call
into the file system at all.

Merge the two into a new bdev_mark_dead helper that does both the
syncing and invalidation and which is properly documented.  This is
in preparation of merging the functionality into the ->mark_dead
holder operation so that it will work on additional block devices
used by a file systems and give us a single entry point for invalidation
of dead devices or media.

Note that a single standalone fsync_bdev call for an obscure ioctl
remains for now, but that one will also be deal with in a bit.
