Subject: [PATCH v2 03/14] fs/buffer: replace ll_rw_block()

ll_rw_block() is not safe for the sync IO path because it skip buffers
which has been locked by others, it could lead to false positive EIO
when submitting read IO. So stop using ll_rw_block(), switch to use new
helpers which could guarantee buffer locked and submit IO if needed.
