The bio based I/O path complicates null_blk and also make various
data structures, including the per-command one way bigger than
required for the main request based interface. As the bio-based
path is mostly used by stacking drivers and simple memory based
drivers, and brd is a good example driver for the latter there is
no need to have a bio based path in null_blk. Remove the path
to simplify the driver and make future block layer API changes
simpler by not having to deal with the complex two API setup in
null_blk.
Note that the queue_mode field in struct nullb_device is kept as
that is simpler than having two different places to check the
value and fully open coding the debugfs helpers as the existing
ones won't work without a named struct member.

The type name enum req_opf is misleading since it suggests that values of
this type include both an operation type and flags. Since values of this
type represent an operation only, change the type name into enum req_op.
Convert the enum req_op documentation into kernel-doc format. Move a few
definitions such that the enum req_op documentation occurs just above
the enum req_op definition.
The name "req_opf" was introduced by commit ef295ecf09 ("block: better op
and flags encoding").

Just use the disk attached to the request_queue instead.
