block: Do not cache device size for removable media

The block layer caches the device size to avoid doing lseek(fd, 0,
SEEK_END) every time this value is needed.  For removable media the
device size becomes stale if a new medium is inserted.  This patch
simply prevents device size caching for removable media.

A smarter solution is to update the cached device size when a new medium
is inserted.  Given that there are currently bugs with CD-ROM media
change I do not want to implement that approach until we've gotten
things correct first.
