[PATCH] VFS buffer: calculate block-size correctly

[Cong Meng]

the invocation of __getblk(bdev, block, size) will cause kernel stall if
the @size parameter is not equal to the block size of the block device
saved in the inode struct.

submit_bh() has the similar problem.

this patch calculates the blocksize by the value i_blkbits saved in the 
inode struct.
