Um, why are you sending this to the linux-ext4 list?

And if you really want to get rid of get_sb_bdev and get_sb_nodev, you
should send a single patch which removes it from all files in the
Linux source tree, as well as updating references to these functions
in the Documentation/filesystems/porting file.
