block: move ->make_request_fn to struct block_device_operations
The make_request_fn is a little weird in that it sits directly in
struct request_queue instead of an operation vector. Replace it with
a block_device_operations method called submit_bio (which describes much
better what it does). Also remove the request_queue argument to it, as
the queue can be derived pretty trivially from the bio.

The routine blk_partition_remap() is invoked by -generic_make_request even before invoking the queue specific make_request_fn, +generic_make_request even before invoking the queue specific ->submit_bio, so the i/o scheduler also gets to operate on whole disk sector numbers.
