Just two nits below. Otherwise feel free to add:

This should be !bdev_is_partition(bdev) for consistency, right?

I'd somewhat prefer if these helpers could actually be inline functions and
not macros. I guess they are macros because hd_struct isn't in blk_types.h.
But if we moved helpers to blkdev.h, we'd have all definitions we need...
Is that a problem for some users?
