Only a single b_private field in the map_bh buffer head is needed after
the submission path. Move map_bh separately to avoid storing
this information in the long term slab.
This avoids the weird 104 byte hole in struct dio_submit which also needed
to be memseted early.

So long as that zeroes the entire struct (seems to), I'm okay with this patch.
