This is completely unrelated and should be a separate patch.  And it
also looks rather strange, I'd at very least split the dev check out
and return early without the weird compound statement, but would probably
handle each one separate.  All assuming that we really need all these
debug printks.

This needs a __init annotation now.

On-stack method tables are a little odd..

This looks a little weird.  Can we define a rapper for this in config.h
that is a little more self-explanatory, e.g. in_module()?

Can't ever be true.

Can't ever be true either.

І_BDEV just does pointer arithmetics, so it can't ever return NULL.
And there are no block device inodes without bd_inode either.  And
all of this is per definition present for open S_ISBLK inodes.
