OK, it seems to be working here. It doesn't fix anything in rd.c - all
it does is crapectomy in block_dev.c. Pseudo-fs added, inodes are
allocated there upon blkdev_open() and blkdev_get(), ->bd_inode is
always from that pseudo-fs and never equal to inode passed into blkdev_open().
Crap with fake inodes is gone - we simply use ->bd_inode. ->a_ops for
block device inodes is not set at all - neither in devices.c nor in devfs.
We set it for inodes on pseudo-fs and setting ->i_mapping upon open()
does the right thing.
All mess with keeping the first inode alive is gone - no need to do that
anymore.
