Two different callers use two different mutexes for updating the block device size, which obviously doesn't help to actually protect against concurrent updates from the different callers. In addition one of the locks, bd_mutex is rather prone to deadlocks with other parts of the block stack that use it for high level synchronization. Switch to using a new spinlock protecting just the size updates, as that is all we need, and make sure everyone does the update through the proper helper. This fixes a bug reported with the nvme revalidating disks during a hot removal operation, which can currently deadlock on bd_mutex.

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.
