This commit causes a NULL pointer dereference when adding a pktcdvd
mapping.

Reproducing it is simple:
# pktsetup 1 /dev/cdrom 

Specifically, the NULL dereference happens inside bdev_get_queue(bdev),
which is supposed to return bdev->bd_disk->queue, but in this case
bdev->bd_disk is NULL.

If I revert this commit the mapping is added correctly (tested on 4.14.10,
but there haven't been any changes to pktcdvd.c and bdev_get_queue() in
4.15-rc5).
