[PATCH block/for-next v2 01/16] block: add a new helper to get inode from block_device

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>

block_devcie is allocated from bdev_alloc() by bdev_alloc_inode(), and
currently block_device contains a pointer that point to the address of
inode, while such inode is allocated together:

bdev_alloc
 inode = new_inode()
  // inode is &bdev_inode->vfs_inode
 bdev = I_BDEV(inode)
  // bdev is &bdev_inode->bdev
 bdev->inode = inode

Add a new helper to get address of inode from bdev by add operation
instead of memory access, which is more efficiency.
