Subject[PATCH v2] block: Suppress uevent for hidden device when removed
Date
register_disk() suppress uevents for devices with the GENHD_FL_HIDDEN
but enables uevents at the end again in order to announce disk after
possible partitions are created.

When the device is removed the uevents are still on and user land sees
'remove' messages for devices which were never 'add'ed to the system.

KERNEL[95481.571887] remove /devices/virtual/nvme-fabrics/ctl/nvme5/nvme0c5n1 (block)

Let's suppress the uevents for GENHD_FL_HIDDEN by not enabling the
uevents at all.

This version behaves in the same way as v1, that is I don't see any
other effects than the expected missing uevent remove event.

v2:
- never enable the uevents for GENHD_FL_HIDDEN
instead adding another test add del_gendisk()
