btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(): call set_blocksize() only for exclusive opens



btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() has two callers - btrfs_open_one_device(),
which asks for open to be exclusive and btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path(),
which doesn't.  Currently it does set_blocksize() in all cases.

I'm rather dubious about the need to do set_blocksize() anywhere in btrfs,
to be honest - there's some access to page cache of underlying block
devices in there, but it's nowhere near the hot paths, AFAICT.

In any case, btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path() only needs to read
the on-disk superblock and copy several fields out of it; all
callers are only interested in devices that are already opened
and brought into per-filesystem set, so setting the block size
is redundant for those and actively harmful if we are given
a pathname of unrelated device.

So we only need btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() to call set_blocksize()
when it's asked to open exclusive.
