Disclaimer: I don’t know anything about the replication block driver.

It appears to me that top_bs is only used to install op blockers. It
seems reasonable to require a root node to be able to do so (because op
blockers are really only checked on a root node).
(And the commit message doesn’t tell why we’d want to drop the
is_root_node check here.)
Now OTOH I don’t know whether the replication driver needs an op blocker
at all or whether the permission system suffices...
I suppose the rest of this patch is not really about the block layer, so
I can’t really comment on it. (It looks OK to me from a generic and
naïve standpoint, though.)

Just one question out of curiosity, though: Is this a bug fix?
