Revision b53df2e7442c73a932fb74228147fb946e531585 authored by Shin'ichiro Kawasaki on 21 February 2020, 01:37:08 UTC, committed by Jens Axboe on 12 March 2020, 13:54:39 UTC
Commit b72053072c0b ("block: allow partitions on host aware zone
devices") introduced the helper function disk_has_partitions() to check
if a given disk has valid partitions. However, since this function result
directly depends on the disk partition table length rather than the
actual existence of valid partitions in the table, it returns true even
after all partitions are removed from the disk. For host aware zoned
block devices, this results in zone management support to be kept
disabled even after removing all partitions.

Fix this by changing disk_has_partitions() to walk through the partition
table entries and return true if and only if a valid non-zero size
partition is found.
