Re: [md PATCH 8/8] md: Use revalidate_disk to effect changes in size of device.

As revalidate_disk calls check_disk_size_change, it will cause
any capacity change of a gendisk to be propagated to the blockdev
inode.  So use that instead of mucking about with locks and
i_size_write.

Also add a call to revalidate_disk in do_md_run and a few other places
where the gendisk capacity is changed.

This patch causes my Fedora 11 system with all filesystems on RAID-1 to
not boot (it hangs in early userspace, Ctrl-Alt-Del reboots the system.)
