[PATCH 01/17] block: set the disk capacity to 0 in blk_mark_disk_dead

[Christoph Hellwig]

nvme and xen-blkfront are already doing this to stop buffered writes from
creating dirty pages that can't be written out later.  Move it to the
common code.

This also removes the comment about the ordering from nvme, as bd_mutex
not only is gone entirely, but also hasn't been used for locking updates
to the disk size long before that, and thus the ordering requirement
documented there doesn't apply any more.
