Unfortunately that doesn't solve the problem:
The current EBUSY check checks that the partition is not used as a
swap partition, it doesn't check the VFS, and it doesn't check
whether the RAID driver uses the volume.

I've attached an old patch (vs.2.2.6):
I've send that patch to linux-kernel@vger, Alan (..wait until Linus
returns from vacation..), Linus (no reply).

The patch adds a bitmap to the block cache for EBUSY checks.
Actually, we can use this bitmap for other bits if we use devfs and
dynamic MAJOR/MINOR codes:
we must replace all 'MAJOR==LOOP', 'MAJOR==IDE' etc. if we want to
support dynamic block device MAJOR/MINOR's.

Additionally, we save 6-8 kB kernel memory. (ro_bits was an 8 kB
static array).

If you think that the patch is usefull, then I'll make a new patch
vs 2.3.0, otherwise I'll wait until devfs is added, and I'll
try to write a larger patch (dynamic MAJOR/MINOR for block cache)
that includes this one.
