It is very likely that block device inode will be part of BDI dirty list as well. However it doesn't make sence to sort inodes on the b_io list just because of this inode (as it contains buffers all over the device anyway). So save some CPU cycles which is valuable since we hold relatively contented wb->list_lock.
