Subject: [PATCH 11/14] ufs: replace ll_rw_block()

ll_rw_block() is not safe for the sync read path because it cannot
guarantee that submitting read IO if the buffer has been locked. We
could get false positive EIO after wait_on_buffer() if the buffer has
been locked by others. So stop using ll_rw_block() in ufs.
