    btrfs: get bdev from latest_dev for dio bh_result · 8530c37a

    To remove use of extent_map::bdev we need to find a replacement, and the
    latest_bdev is the only one we can use here, because inode::i_bdev and
    superblock::s_bdev are NULL.
    
    The DIO code uses bdev in two places:
    
    * to read blocksize to perform alignment checks in
      do_blockdev_direct_IO, but we do them in btrfs code before any call to
      DIO
    
    * in the following call chain:
    
      do_direct_IO
        get_more_blocks
         sdio->get_block() <-- this is btrfs_get_blocks_direct
    
      subsequently the map_bh->b_dev member is used in clean_bdev_aliases
      and dio_new_bio to set the bio's bdev to that of the buffer_head.
      However, because we have provided a submit function dio_bio_submit
      calls our submission function and ignores the bdev.
    
    So it's safe to pass any valid bdev that's used within the filesystem.
