This reverts commit 115e19c53501edc11f730191f7f047736815ae3d
	exofs: Set i_mapping->backing_dev_info anyway

Apparently setting inode->bdi to one's own sb->s_bdi stops
VFS from sending *read-aheads*. This problem was bisected
to this commit. A revert fixes it. I'll investigate farther
why is this happening for the next Kernel, but for now a revert.

I'm sending to stable@xxxxxxxxxx as well, since it exists also
in 2.6.37.
2.6.36 is good and does not have this patch.
