block: don't assume device has a request list backing in nr_requests store

commit b8a9ae77 upstream.

Stacked devices do not. For now, just error out with -EINVAL. Later
we could make the limit apply on stacked devices too, for throttling
reasons.

This fixes

5a54cd13353bb3b88887604e2c980aa01e314309

and should go into 2.6.31 stable as well.
