Open /dev/nbdX first, the config_refs will be 1 and
the pointers in nbd_device are still null. Disconnect
/dev/nbdX, then reference a null recv_workq. The
protection by config_refs in nbd_genl_disconnect is useless.

<title>include: remove pagemap.h from blkdev.h</title>

My UEK-derived config has 1030 files depending on pagemap.h before this
change.  Afterwards, just 326 files need to be rebuilt when I touch
pagemap.h.  I think blkdev.h is probably included too widely, but
untangling that dependency is harder and this solves my problem.  x86
allmodconfig builds, but there may be implicit include problems on other
architectures.

<content type='text'>
The IO performance test with fio after removing the likely and
unlikely macros in all if-statement shows no performance drop.
They do not help for the performance of rnbd.

The fio test did random read on 32 rnbd devices and 64 processes.
Test environment:
- AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 6386 SE
- 125G memory
- kernel version: 5.4.86
- gcc version: gcc (Debian 8.3.0-6) 8.3.0
- Infiniband controller: InfiniBand: Mellanox Technologies MT26428
[ConnectX VPI PCIe 2.0 5GT/s - IB QDR / 10GigE] (rev b0)

read: IOPS=562k, BW=2194MiB/s
-----------
average: IOPS=556k, BW=2173MiB/s

The IOPS and bandwidth got better slightly after removing
likely/unlikely. (IOPS= +1.8% BW= +1.9%) But we cannot make sure
that removing the likely/unlikely help the performance because it
depends on various situations. We only make sure that removing the
likely/unlikely does not drop the performance.

The member queue_depth in the structure rnbd_clt_session is read from the
rtrs client side using the function rtrs_clt_query, which in turn is read
from the rtrs_clt structure. It should really be of type size_t.
