Hi Jens,

with the previously merged patches all real users of ->revalidate_disk
are gone.  This series removes the two remaining not actually required
instances and the method itself.

Jens,

can you consider this for the 5.13 tree?

Looks fine to me, we just need to drop the umem change as it was
removed. And paride really should be as well... But in any case,

Last time asked around (for the blk-mq conversion) we still had people
actively using it.

I'll queue up the other two or 5.13.

So this ended up on the drivers branch.  I do have a buch of core
changes pending that will depend on it.
