get_gendisk grabs a reference on the disk and file operation, so this
code will leak both of them while having absolutely no use for the
gendisk itself.

This effectively reverts commit 2df83fa4bce421f
("PM / Hibernate: Use get_gendisk to verify partition if resume_file is integer format")

Will do, thanks!
