[RFC PATCH 04/18] brd: use init disk helper

Tue Oct 4 22:00:13 PDT 2022


Add and use the helper to initialize the common fields of struct gendisk
such as major, first_minor, minors, disk_name, private_data, and ops.
This initialization is spread all over the block drivers. This avoids
code repetation of inialization code of gendisk in current block drivers
and any future ones.
