block: restore a specific error code in bdev_del_partition
mdadm relies on the fact that deleting an invalid partition returns -ENXIO or -ENOTTY to detect if a block device is a partition or a whole device. Fixes: 08fc1ab6d748 ("block: fix locking in bdev_del_partition") Reported-by: kernel test robot <rong.a.chen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
