This function is used by the block layer queue to bail out of
requests if the current request is an RPMB request.

However this makes no sense: RPMB is only used from ioctl():s,
there are no RPMB accesses coming from the block layer.
An RPMB ioctl() always switches to the RPMB partition and
then back to the main partition before completing.

The only (possible) use of this check must have been to
duct-tape over a race between RPMB ioctl()s colliding with
concurrent non-RPMB accesses to the same device.

This could happen in the past because the RPMB device was
created as a separate block device/disk with its own submit
queue competing with the main partition, and submitting
requests in parallel. This is now gone as we removed the
offending RPMB block device in another patch.

This patch is not an RFC since it is a logical consequence
of the RFC patch, not really much to discuss about it.
