Subject: [PATCH] block: restore multiple bd_link_disk_holder() support
Commit e09b457b (block: simplify holder symlink handling) incorrectly
assumed that there is only one holder at maximum. dm may use multiple
holders. Remove the single holder assumption and automatic removal of
the link. Let the callers explicitly remove them. This change makes
it even more alien from the rest of the block layer.
While at it, note that this facility should not be used by anyone else
than the current ones. Sysfs symlinks shouldn't be abused like this
and the whole thing doesn't belong in the block layer at all.

Milan, Jun, can you guys please verify this works correctly for the
multi holder dm case? Thank you.
