Commit 3b4b19721ec652 ("nvme: fix possible deadlock when I/O is
blocked") reverted multipath head disk revalidation due to deadlocks
caused by holding the bd_mutex during revalidate.
Updating the multipath disk blockdev size is still required though for
userspace to be able to observe any resizing while the device is
mounted. Directly update the bdev inode size to avoid unnecessarily
holding the bdev->bd_mutex.

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.
