This currently adds a queue enter/exit pair even if no filter driver
is used, which іs probably not acceptable.  We probably need some
way to avoid the check in the fast path.  In general an unlocked check
for bio->bi_bdev->bd_filter outside the protection seems fine to here,
we just need to find a good way to make sure it is visible by the
time a filter is actually set and the filter driver initialization.

This is just stray reformatting and we can drop it.
