block, bdi: an active gendisk always has a request_queue associated with it
bdev_get_queue() returns the request_queue associated with the specified block_device. blk_get_backing_dev_info() makes use of bdev_get_queue() to determine the associated bdi given a block_device. All the callers of bdev_get_queue() including blk_get_backing_dev_info() assume that bdev_get_queue() may return NULL and implement NULL handling; however, bdev_get_queue() requires the passed in block_device is opened and attached to its gendisk. Because an active gendisk always has a valid request_queue associated with it, bdev_get_queue() can never return NULL and neither can blk_get_backing_dev_info(). Make it clear that neither of the two functions can return NULL and remove NULL handling from all the callers.
