block: call into the file system for ioctl BLKFLSBUF

BLKFLSBUF is a historic ioctl that is called on a file handle to a
block device and syncs either the file system mounted on that block
device if there is one, or otherwise the just the data on the block
device.

Replace the get_super based syncing with a holder operation to remove
the last usage of get_super, and to also support syncing the file system
if the block device is not the main block device stored in s_dev.
