krbd: make sure the device node is accessible after the mapping
We have always assumed this to be the case and users' scripts and
orchestration tools have grown to depend on this. Let's add some
enforcement, prompted by [1]:
"I am running my Kubernetes worker node inside of an LXC container
which doesn't benefit from the device node created by the kernel, so
I'm using udev to create the /dev/rbd* device nodes inside of the LXC
container."
which, through the unfortunate interaction with ceph-csi rbd plugin,
results in data loss for "volumeMode: Filesystem" PVs because it ends
up recreating the filesystem every time the PV is attached to the pod:
"When deleting the pod and re-creating it, I can see that the RBD
image is indeed being reformatted. This seems to be because when
blkid is being run to check if the image is formatted, the /dev/rbd*
device has not yet been created by udev. By the time the code gets
down to running mkfs, the device is there and the damage is done."
