Subject: [PATCH v2 5.4] block: fix and cleanup bio_check_ro

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de>

commit 57e95e4670d1126c103305bcf34a9442f49f6d6a upstream.

Don't use a WARN_ON when printing a potentially user triggered
condition.  Also don't print the partno when the block device name
already includes it, and use the %pg specifier to simplify printing
the block device name.

[the formatted string layout is not changed because struct bio hasn't
got bi_bdev field in stable branches older than 5.15; generic_make_request
is removed as it is unnecessary]
