libnvdimm: Notify disk drivers to revalidate region read-only
Previous kernels allowed the BLKROSET to override the disk's read-only
status. With that situation fixed the pmem driver needs to rely on
notification events to reevaluate the disk read-only status after the
host region has been marked read-write.
Recall that when libnvdimm determines that the persistent memory has
lost persistence (for example lack of energy to flush from DRAM to FLASH
on an NVDIMM-N device) it marks the region read-only, but that state can
be overridden by the user via:
echo 0 > /sys/bus/nd/devices/regionX/read_only
...to date there is no notification that the region has restored
persistence, so the user override is the only recovery.
Fixes: 52f019d ("block: add a hard-readonly flag to struct gendisk")
