The commit c62b37d96b6eb3ec5 in the Linux Kernel not only moved
`make_request_fn` to `struct block_device_operations` and renamed it to
`submit_bio` but in also removed the request_queue from the argument list.

fput() doesn't wait for all references on the disk to be unclaimed but instead
it only schedules a worker that is supposed to cleanup resources once the device
is released.
During cache initialization we open device at least twice - to check its
properties and then to actually use it as cache. But since we use the async
fput() after the probe, the device might still be in use once we try to open it
for the second time (the second open returns -EBUSY).
Using synchronous __fput_sync() to close the device fixes the issue
__fput_sync() exists in the kernel API longer than bdev_file_open_by_path() and
the presence of the latter is the condition to use the synchronous put so it is
perfectly safe to get rid of fput() from the configure framework

Previously when user tried to allocate to big bio he recieved NULL. As the
behavior was changed to `BUG()` passing out of range value is no longer legal.
Limiting the requested bio size to BIO_MAX_PAGES (on the older kernels) or to
BIO_MAX_VECS (on the newer ones) eliminates the problem as the macros represent
the max possible value.

Update function returning size of free memory to use available statistic
if that's supported by given kernel. This function is used to check
whether there is enough memory to start cache, and available statistic is
preferred for this check over free statistic, as it does include size of
page cache allocations which can be easily reclaimed by the system.

This check will always return 0, as none of kernel versions supported
by Open CAS sets a barrier flag in for bio. Those flags are exclusive to
struct request, which is no longer used by Open CAS.

In case the installed kernel doesn't have a minor version number the script

Proper file extensions help 'copyright header checker' find files
that should contain copyright info. Extensions also clearly indicate
file type, and help to fit in with the file naming convention.
