The existing code in the bio_check_ro() relies on the op_is_write().
op_is_write() checks for the last bit in the bio_op(). Now that we have
multiple REQ_OP_XXX with last bit set to 1 such as, (from blk_types.h):

        /* write sectors to the device */
        REQ_OP_WRITE            = 1,
        /* flush the volatile write cache */
        REQ_OP_DISCARD          = 3,
        /* securely erase sectors */
        REQ_OP_SECURE_ERASE     = 5,
        /* write the same sector many times */
        REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME       = 7,
        /* write the zero filled sector many times */
        REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES     = 9,

it is hard to understand which bio op failed in the bio_check_ro().

Modify the error message in bio_check_ro() to print correct REQ_OP_XXX
with the help of blk_op_str().
