block: default BLOCK_LEGACY_AUTOLOAD to y
commit 451f0b6f4c upstream.
As Luis reported, losetup currently doesn't properly create the loop
device without this if the device node already exists because old
scripts created it manually. So default to y for now and remove the
aggressive removal schedule.

[ Upstream commit fbdee71bb5 ]
Make the legacy dev_t based autoloading optional and add a deprecation
warning. This kind of autoloading has ceased to be useful about 20 years
ago.

block: remove __sync_blockdev
[ Upstream commit 70164eb6cc ]
Instead offer a new sync_blockdev_nowait helper for the !wait case.
This new helper is exported as it will grow modular callers in a bit.

block: genhd: fix double kfree() in __alloc_disk_node()
syzbot is reporting use-after-free read at bdev_free_inode() [1], for
kfree() from __alloc_disk_node() is called before bdev_free_inode()
(which is called after RCU grace period) reads bdev->bd_disk and calls
kfree(bdev->bd_disk).
Fix use-after-free read followed by double kfree() problem
by making sure that bdev->bd_disk is NULL when calling iput().
