[Drbd-dev] improve the bio allocation interface

Hi Jens,

this series is posted early because it has wide-ranging changes and could use some
early ACKs before -rc1.

It changes the interface to the bio allocators to always pass a block_device and
the operation, which is information needed for every bio submitted through
bio_submit.  This means the fields can be directly initialized in bio_init instead
of first being zeroed and thus should help to micro-optimize even better than the
__bio_set_dev that Pavel proposed while also cleaning up code.

I have a follow on series to also deal with the bio cloning interfaces that need
even more love, and additional cleanups for the callers which might be material
for the next merge window.
