Commit 267ec4d722 ("loop: fix partition scan race between udev and
loop_reread_partitions()") stopped disk_force_media_change() from
setting GD_NEED_PART_SCAN because loop devices with LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN
rescan partitions explicitly. However, partitions can also be added
manually with BLKPG while LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN is clear.
When such a loop device is detached, __loop_clr_fd() skips
bdev_disk_changed(). Without GD_NEED_PART_SCAN, reopening the unbound
device no longer performs the previous lazy cleanup, leaving dead
partition devices behind. A subsequent LOOP_CONFIGURE can then fail its
partition scan with -EBUSY, as seen in blktests loop/009 after loop/008.
Call bdev_disk_changed() unconditionally during __loop_clr_fd(). The
disk capacity is already zero and the release path holds open_mutex, so
this drops all partitions without rescanning the detached backing file.
The new blktests loop/013 case covers this sequence by adding a partition
with BLKPG without LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN, detaching the loop device, and
checking that the partition is gone when the device is reopened.
