    block-dev: enable writeback cgroup support

See if you can reproduce it after the following:

ed fs/block_dev.c <<'EOF'
/bd_mount/
/if/s/dent/!IS_ERR(dent)/
wq
EOF

Said that, I'm not sure why mount_pseudo() would be returning any errors;
rejection should happen in the caller (due to MS_NOUSER in the flags), but
I don't understand what would trigger it on mount_pseudo() level...
