       Hi Jens,
    
        I've found a little bug for you.  It was introduced by
            a6f23657
    
            block: add one-hit cache for disk partition lookup
    
        and has the effect of killing my machine whenever I try to assemble
        an md array :-(
        One of the devices in the array has partitions, and mdadm always
        deletes partitions before putting a whole-device in an array (as it
        can cause confusion).  The next IO to that device locks the machine.
        I don't really understand exactly why it locks up, but it happens in
        disk_map_sector_rcu().  This patch fixes it.
    
    Which is due to a missing clear of the (now) stale partition lookup
    data. So clear that when we delete a partition.
