Commit 20bd1d026aac ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when re-reading partition") addressed a long-standing problem with user read-only policy being overridden as a result of a device-initiated revalidate. The commit has since been reverted due to a regression that left some USB devices read-only indefinitely.
To fix the underlying problems with revalidate we need to keep track of hardware state and user policy separately. Every time the state is changed, either via a hardware event or the BLKROSET ioctl, the per-partition read-only state is updated based on the combination of device state and policy. The resulting active state is stored in a separate hd_struct flag to avoid introducing additional lookups in the I/O hot path.
The gendisk has been updated to reflect the current hardware state set by the device driver. This is done to allow returning the device to the hardware state once the user clears the BLKROSET flag.
For partitions, the existing hd_struct 'policy' flag is split into two:
'read_only' indicates the currently active read-only state of a whole disk device or partition.
'ro_policy' indicates the whether the user has administratively set the whole disk or partition read-only via the BLKROSET ioctl.
The resulting semantics are as follows:
If BLKROSET is used to set a whole-disk device read-only, any partitions will end up in a read-only state until the user explicitly clears the flag.
If BLKROSET sets a given partition read-only, that partition will remain read-only even if the underlying storage stack initiates a revalidate. However, the BLKRRPART ioctl will cause the partition table to be dropped and any user policy on partitions will be lost.
If BLKROSET has not been set, both the whole disk device and any partitions will reflect the current write-protect state of the underlying device.

Looks good.
