Pull vfs superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work to make block device opening functions return a
  struct bdev_handle instead of just a struct block_device. The same
  struct bdev_handle is then also passed to block device closing
  functions.

  This allows us to propagate context from opening to closing a block
  device without having to modify all users everytime.

  Sidenote, in the future we might even want to try and have block
  device opening functions return a struct file directly but that's a
  series on top of this.

  These are further preparatory changes to be able to count writable
  opens and blocking writes to mounted block devices. That's a separate
  piece of work for next cycle and for that we absolutely need the
  changes to btrfs that have been quietly dropped somehow.

  Originally the series contained a patch that removed the old
  blkdev_*() helpers. But since this would've caused needles churn in
  -next for bcachefs we ended up delaying it.

  The second piece of work addresses one of the major annoyances about
  the work last cycle, namely that we required dropping s_umount
  whenever we used the superblock and fs_holder_ops for a block device.

  The reason for that requirement had been that in some codepaths
  s_umount could've been taken under disk->open_mutex (that's always
  been the case, at least theoretically). For example, on surprise block
  device removal or media change. And opening and closing block devices
  required grabbing disk->open_mutex as well.

  So we did the work and went through the block layer and fixed all
  those places so that s_umount is never taken under disk->open_mutex.
  This means no more brittle games where we yield and reacquire s_umount
  during block device opening and closing and no more requirements where
  block devices need to be closed. Filesystems don't need to care about
  this.

  There's a bunch of other follow-up work such as moving block device
  freezing and thawing to holder operations which makes it work for all
  block devices and not just the main block device just as we did for
  surprise removal. But that is for next cycle.

  Tested with fstests for all major fses, blktests, LTP"
