Not really. That is, I added it to get a call of invalidate_inodes(), but of course you also get that upon umount. So, if you never forget to umount before ejecting, or if your eject program does the umount itself, then BLKRRPART is superfluous, provided you do BLKFLSBUF.

[On the other hand, if you do BLKRRPART, then BLKFLSBUF is superfluous.]
