I've got a new version ready to go that removes the bio and bi_dev
requirement for polling uring commands, but passthrough still needs to
set bi_bdev for metadata since it's used in bio_integrity_add_page(). I
suppose we could have that just take the queue limits directly instead
of extracting them from an assumed bi_dev.
