For whole devices ->open is called for each open, but for partitions it
is only called on the first open of a partition.  This is problematic
as various block drivers look at open flags and might not do all setup
for ioctl only or NDELAY opens.

This assumes that all drivers deal with additional ->open() calls for
each partition correctly which I assumed you checked so,

They have to, because they already get the additional open for
extra opens of the whole device.  The current behavior is:

open("/dev/vdb", ...)
  ->open called

open("/dev/vdb", ...)
  ->open called

----

open("/dev/vdb", ...)
  ->open called

open("/dev/vdb1", ...)
  ->open called

----

open("/dev/vdb1", ...)
  ->open called

open("/dev/vdb1", ...)
  ->open NOT called

which is very inconsistent.
