eaf5fe2dd4ec001d645ff3b343f466457badaa64 block: return EPERM on writes or discards to read-only devices
This is the behavior in the operating system, for example Linux's
blkdev_write_iter has the following:
if (bdev_read_only(I_BDEV(bd_inode)))
return -EPERM;
This does not apply to opening a device for read/write, when the
device only supports read-only operation. In this case any of
EACCES, EPERM or EROFS is acceptable depending on why writing is
not possible.
