Subject[PATCH 03/16] block: don't check events while open is in progress
Date
Not all block drivers clear events immediately after reporting.  Some
do so in ->revalidate_disk() or other steps during ->open(). There is
a slim chance event poll may happen between the clearing event check
from check_disk_change() and the actual clearing of the events which
would result in spurious events.

Block event checks while block device open is in progress. There is
no need to kick explicit event check afterwards as events are always
checked during open.
