block: Do not reread partition table on exclusively open device

Browse Source 
Since commit 10c70d95c0 ("block: remove the bd_openers checks in
blk_drop_partitions") we allow rereading of partition table although
there are users of the block device. This has an undesirable consequence
that e.g. if sda and sdb are assembled to a RAID1 device md0 with
partitions, BLKRRPART ioctl on sda will rescan partition table and
create sda1 device. This partition device under a raid device confuses
some programs (such as libstorage-ng used for initial partitioning for
distribution installation) leading to failures.

Fix the problem refusing to rescan partitions if there is another user
that has the block device exclusively open.
