Let's pick this up now so it still has ample time in -next even though
we're still missing a nod from the btrfs people. The nilfs to
mount_bdev() conversion is probably not super urgent but if wanted a
follow-up patch won't be frowned upon.

Applied to the vfs.super branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs.super branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a
new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it.

It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the
patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated.

Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase,
trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch.
