[PATCH 2/3] rbd: don't revalidate so much

[Alex Elder <elder@inktank.com>]

Whenever a header object event causes a mapped rbd image to refresh
its header information, revalidate_disk() is being called.  This was
done in rbd_dev_refresh() outside the control mutex in order to
avoid a lock inversion.  Although a an event like this *might*
indicate the image has changed size, most of the time it does not.

Record the image size before and after the refresh, and only
call revalidate_disk() if it changes.

This resolves:
