As explained in commit 36369f46e917 ("block: Do not reread partition table
on exclusively open device"), reread partition on the device that is
exclusively opened by someone else is problematic.
This patch will make sure partition scan will only be proceed if current
thread open the device exclusively, or the device is not opened
exclusively, and in the later case, other scanners and exclusive openers
will be blocked temporarily until partition scan is done.

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.
