Hi Jens,

this series adds a ->free_disk method to struct block_device_operation so that
drivers can defer freeing their disk private data until the gendisk goes away
and don't need to play games with the validity of ->private_data.

This also converts three simple drivers over as example, but eventually I
imagine that all drivers with private data will use it.

Changes since v1:
 - fix a tag_set use after free in virtio_blk
