Maybe we should return early at this point if revalidate_disk()
failed or fops->revalidate_disk is NULL.

We might return success here even if bdev is NULL. OTOH, as the callers
of revalidate_disk() do not check the return value anyway (although at
least tapeblock_revalidate_disk() might return a negative value) it's
probably also an option to change the return type of revalidate_disk()
to void.
