When an rbd image is mapped, a watch request is issued so that the
client will get notified in the event the image header object
changes.  This is done using rbd_init_watch_dev(), which calls
rbd_req_sync_watch().

rbd_init_watch_dev() is organized as a loop, arranging to re-issue
the request after refreshing the header if -ERANGE ever gets
returned.  But the only way rbd_req_sync_watch() will return -ERANGE
is if the CEPH_OSD_OP_WATCH operation returns that, which it will
not.

As a result, the whole looping structure and in fact the whole
function becomes excessive.  So get rid of rbd_init_watch_dev(),
and call rbd_req_sync_watch() directly in the one place it's used.

Instead of getting rid of this loop, we should make it
send a compound operation consisting of (CEPH_OSD_OP_ASSERT_VER,
CEPH_OSD_OP_WATCH). Then we will get -ERANGE if our version
of the header is out of data, so we don't lose header updates
before the watch is established.

I don't have compound operations going yet, but now I see why it
may have been written this way.  So I'll drop this patch, and
will make a note to re-visit this spot later.
