Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it. For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist. Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

config BFS_FS tristate "BFS file system support" depends on BLOCK select BUFFER_HEAD help Boot File System (BFS) is a file system used under SCO UnixWare to allow the bootloader access to the kernel image and other important files during the boot process. It is usually mounted under /stand and corresponds to the slice marked as "STAND" in the UnixWare partition. You should say Y if you want to read or write the files on your /stand slice from within Linux. You then also need to say Y to "UnixWare slices support", below. More information about the BFS file system is contained in the file file:Documentation/filesystems/bfs.rst.
If you don't know what this is about, say N.
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
bfs. Note that the file system of your root partition (the one
containing the directory /) cannot be compiled as a module.
