[PATCH] bcache: Reload device size

[Gabriel]

Adds /sys/block/bcache*/bcache/resize; writing "max"
to such a file will reload the device size to match
the size of the underlying device, minus the bcache
superblock.

This is useful to grow a filesystem stacked on top
of bcache and a logical volume.

Other values than max are reserved for now; support
for shrinking might be added if the need comes up.
