I'll take a look later today. currently I think of something like:


	sysfs_remove_group()
	lock ->bd_mutex
		... check ->bd_openers

	zram_reset_device()
	blk_cleanup_queue()
	del_gendisk()
	put_disk()

	unlock ->bd_mutex
	bdput bdev

	idr_remove()
	kfree(zram)


iow, idr_remove() and kfree() are done outside of ->bd_mutex lock.
but I may be wrong. haven't tested yet. but seems reasonable: we
invalidate ->bdev, delete partitions, etc., holding ->bd_mutex and
then release ->bdev, which does final put. need to check that in
detail.
