Embed block device name in struct block_device, thus we can replace
the following code:
	char b[BDEVNAME_SIZE];
	printk(KERN_XXX "...%s..\n", bdevname(bdev, b);

with a much simpler and less stack usage version:
	printk(KERN_XXX "...%s..\n", bdev->bd_name);

This is a RFC version, which I just included one sample with this change
appiled. If this patch makes sense to you, I will file more patches to
apply this change.
ping... (though it's a trivial RFC patch)


Thanks,
