Good catch, this issue probably only exists with journal, because we write
superblock there.

I think this should be 'roundup(sizeof(bitmap_super_t),
bdev_logical_block_size(rdev->bdev))', we not always read one page.

The init check is unnecessary too, because if it isn't init, we will initialize
the bitmaps later in bitmap_resize, so the copy doesn't matter.
