Why not pass it unconditionally and provide your own more useful
error message at the end of the function if you could not find any
source?
My own (potential) concern is that if CONFIG_EROFS_FS_BACKED_BY_FILE
is off, EROFS should just behave as other pure bdev fses since I'm
not sure if some userspace program really relies on
"Can't lookup blockdev" behavior.
.. Yet that is just my own potential worry anyway.
Thanks,
Gao Xiang
