bdev->bd_super is a somewhat awkward backpointer from a block device to an owning file system with unclear rules. For the buffer_head code we already have a good backpointer for the inode that the buffer_head is associated with, even if it lives on the block device mapping: b_assoc_map. It is used track dirty buffers associated with an inode but living on the block device mapping like directory buffers in ext4. mark_buffer_write_io_error already uses it for the call to mapping_set_error, and should be doing the same for the per-sb error sequence.
