[PATCHv5 08/16] BFS: clean up the superblock usage

[Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind1@gmail.com>]

From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

BFS superblocks contains only static information and is never
changed. However, the BFS code for some misterious reasons
marked its buffer head as dirty from time to time, but nothing
in that buffer was ever changed.

This patch removes all the BFS superblock manipulation, simply
because it is not needed. It removes:

1. The si_sbh filed from 'struct bfs_sb_info' because it is not needed.
   We only need to read the SB once on mount to get the start of
   data blocks and the FS size. After this, we can forget about the
   SB.
2. All instances of 'mark_buffer_dirty()' because the SB is never
   changed.
3. The ->sync_fs method because there is nothing to sync except the
   inodes, which are synched by VFS.
4. The ->write_super method because the SB is never changed.
