    This reverts commit 20bd1d02.
    
    This patch introduced regressions for devices that come online in
    read-only state and subsequently switch to read-write.
    
    Given how the partition code is currently implemented it is not
    possible to persist the read-only flag across a device revalidate
    call. This may need to get addressed in the future since it is common
    for user applications to proactively call BLKRRPART.
    
    Reverting this commit will re-introduce a regression where a
    device-initiated revalidate event will cause the admin state to be
    forgotten. A separate patch will address this issue.
