Possibly due to remove-bdput-from-do_open-in-fs-block_devc.patch.

That patch is "wrong" and I think the problem which it attempts to address
actually lies in the cdrom code. viro was taking a look at it but appears
to have recoiled in horror. I'll drop
remove-bdput-from-do_open-in-fs-block_devc.patch so let's just watch out
for any reoccurrence, thanks.
