A szybot reproducer that does write I/O while truncating the size of a block device can end up in clean_bdev_aliases, which tries to clean the bdev aliases that it uses. This is because iomap_to_bh automatically sets the BH_New flag when outside of i_size. For block devices updates to i_size are racy and we can hit this case in a tiny race window, leading to the eventual clean_bdev_aliases call. Fix this by erroring out of > i_size I/O on block devices.
