Yes.  Same for the same check further up for the !bdev->bd_openers
case.

As you pointed out the reason these are macros is that the obvious
placement doesn't work.  My plan was to look into cleaning up the block
headers, which are a complete mess between blk_types.h, bio.h, blkdev.h
and genhd.h after I'm done making sense of the data structures, so for
now I didn't want to move too much around.  Hopefully we'll be able to
convert these helpers to inlines once I'm done.
