According to the comments by Huajun Li:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg55698.html

The following commit has changed __blkdev_get() to end up calling
sd_revalidate_disk() without getting a refcount of scsi_device:

  commit 1196f8b814f32cd04df334abf47648c2a9fd8324
  Author: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org>
  Date:   Thu Apr 21 20:54:45 2011 +0200

    block: rescan partitions on invalidated devices on -ENOMEDIA too

that could lead to oops like this:

  process A                  process B
  ----------------------------------------------
  sys_open
    __blkdev_get
      sd_open
        returns -ENOMEDIUM
                             scsi_remove_device
                               <scsi_device torn down>
      rescan_partitions
        sd_revalidate_disk
          <oops>

Should "revalidate_disk" of block_device_operations work
without successful open()?

If so, sd_revalidate_disk() (and possibly other drivers) needs to be
fixed. (e.g. use scsi_disk_get/put by itself)

If not, __blkdev_get() or rescan_partision() should avoid calling
"revalidate_disk" for -ENOMEDIUM case.
